[Verse 1]
Hey, you look good in a flashbulb light
Hey, you were young and free
Yeah, but the second hand’s ticking, do you
Feel you belong to me?
Hey, you are drifting away from me
Yeah put your hands on wheel
Oh, we could walk together, but do you
Feel like you're even here?
[Chorus]
What's the point in looking good

Oh, we could walk together, but do you
Feel like you're even here?

[Chorus]
There's no the point in looking good
If no one ever gets near you
[Outro]
Yeah
Standing there forever
Yeah
Cactus in the desert
Please
Push the spikes in deep
Someone's gonna set you free
Standing there forever
Yeah
Cactus in the desert
Please
Push the spikes in deep
The pain is gonna set you free
