First Step Video (MV)

Well I like the way you smell but I love the smell of kerosene
My telescope's a bottle what once held rotgut whiskey
We've been looking for the past but it never comes through clean
And if I'm leaving then before the dawn I'll go
Five hundred sixty-five miles to the hour
To a cold and foreign place, just one window in the bowery
And it's been a rotten week as I count the dreaded hours
But if you're leaving then before the grace I'll go
But give me one more year
I'll get a job, just wait and see
Give me three more years
And i swear I'll come back clean
Give me five more years
I could be the man you wanted me to be
Oh I'll do what it takes
Oh I'll do what it takes
On the night we met you said you'd teach me how to dance a two step
Only yesterday you said I'd better learn myself a twelve step
Better pull up off the throttle 'cus its me or its the bottle
And I swear this time's your last last chance
But give me one more year
I'll get a job just wait and see
Give me three more years
And i swear I'll come back clean
Give me five more years
I could be the man you wanted me to be
Oh I'll do what it takes
Oh I'll do what it takes
Oh I'll do what it takes
Oh I'll do what it takes
