You aim for that bullseye,
But They claim it's friendly fire,
Good intentions are tossed away,
When those A-K's backfire
But it's A-ok,
See, test drives might save the day
But superheroes never wait,
No time to lose,
We gotta choose
Who we will listen to,
And we'll find strength
From our mistakes.

So hey! Block'em out!
It's time to turn down the sound
Time to shut this city down.
You'll never know how bright you shine
Till you turn the lights out

Oooooooh, don't you notice,
That your the focus.

Barbie dolls can't take our place
Color the walls with their face paint
Perfections so superficial
Made murals out of mistakes.
But it's beautiful.
Wear our scars like war heroes
We'll wear 'em proud like a medal.
No we'll never settle.
We'll build our castle
On the rubble
Of our countless misadventures
And we'll shout it out now and forever

So hey! Block'em out!
It's time to turn down the sound
Time to shut this city down.
You'll never know how bright you shine
Till all them lights are out.

And say hey! Be loud and proud!
Don't the shadows drown you out.
You dance to a different sound,
There'll never be another you,
So never let them put you down.

Ooooooh don't you know
That you're the focus?
