Filmed in Japan, Australia and Montreal, 1-2-3 (One Step Away) could be described as being heartfelt, real, intriguing, disturbing, honest, human, soulful and artsy. A deep succession of raw imageries to drown into and to completely immerse yourself in.
Its a song I wrote reflecting the let go of the personal elements that hold us back in our present state of saddened hearts and keep our soul captive in the despairs of the past. Its truly a personal song by nature, but a collective state. We may mourn the impermanence of life, but we can all elevate ourselves with the euphoria of rebirth, says Alex Foster, who has also closely directed the video, following a long journey.
Following the unique “Between Illness and Migration” album theme, “1-2-3 (One Step Away)” moves the story forward to that moment of contemplation and psyching oneself up to take that fateful step forward, away from the pain and devastation, into something more positive and hopeful.

Lyrics:
Night colors fade again
As I’m facing what is gone, what’s missing
I’m too tired to hide
Though this time I won’t fake through
No, I’ve lost it all by myself… again
I don’t have anyone to blame, it’s my story…
At 1,2,3, I gotta let it go
At 1,2,3, wish I could fall on my knees… find some upper room
At 1,2,3, I gotta let it go
My frantic’s drowned, I witness how my life is a mess right now
It’s not what I’ve always dreamed of
Shadow is all I’ve got
And I just can’t take anymore of this grief, this shame, this guilt
There’s so much I’ve kept inside
But I don’t have anyone to blame, it’s my story
At 1,2,3, I gotta let it go
At 1,2,3, need to fall down on my knees… find some upper room
At 1,2,3, I gotta let it go
I want to tear all the sorrows from my loss,
I need peace now, so much peace now
I’ve been waiting to fall
I’ve been craving to wane
I’ve been desperate for someone to hurt me
I’ve been whispering for someone to make me crawl
I’ve been feeding the lies
I’ve been so hopeless, way too long
But I’m alive, I’m alive, I’m alive, I’m alive, I’m alive, I’m alive, I’m alive
Might have become the lies I’ve told you
Might have become the one you despise
I’ve been feeding the lies
I’ve been dying inside
tell me, I’ll rise… there’s hope
At 1,2,3, I gotta let it go
At 1,2,3, I need to rise up on my feet… find some upper room
At 1,2,3, I gotta let it go
I want to step out, to step out on my feet… I’m so close now
So close now… so close now
I’m just one step away, one step away
I’m so close now, I’m so close now
I’m just one step away, one step away
I’m so close now, I’m so close now
I’m just one step away")
