i can't express
what's going on inside of me
i can't explain
this fire burning deep inside my heart
i wish i knew
what the hell was happening in my head
i wish i could spin
these lyrics into words that just make sense
 
'cause i've just been
wandering around
and i don't know
what's happening to me
'cause every time
that i see your face
i can barely breathe
 
'cause you
you're keeping me tied to the ground
when everything's spinning
around me
you're everything to me
 
i long to show you
just how much you mean to me
i wish i could tell you
just how much it means to me that you care
i'd love to show you
just how much i miss you when you're not here
i need you here
can't you see i'm incomplete without you, dear
 
can't you see that you're my anchor...

Well I watch these city lights
slowly fade to darkness
as one by one the people fall asleep
Well it kinda leaves me wondering
why the stars are brighter
when no one's there to see

Well I'm lying here
looking up at stars
watching constellations
spelling your name in the sky

Well didn't I tell you
that I would always catch you
I'll defy the laws of gravity
to show you what you mean to me

Sometimes I breathe so slow
I lie suspended in a moment
my mind preoccupied with
everything that makes you who you are
(who you are)

Well didn't I tell you
that I would always catch you
I'll defy the laws of gravity
to show you what you mean to me
I'll take you further than the sky
Take my hand, I'll hold you tight
and I'll never let you go

Never let you go

Well never before have I felt this way
It feels like my heart's where my head should be
and thoughts are escaping my mind
like the cars that pass me by
And even the coldest winter nights
are warmer with you by my side
Just promise me you'll never leave
Promise you'll be there for me

After all we've been through
I can't bear to lose you
Throughout all that's happened
my heart's only longed for you
But now with you gone
it's like breathing underwater
like standing without gravity
It's impossible to be me

I never thought I'd say this
but I'm all choked up inside
These tear tracks down my cheeks
show the feelings I just can't hide
A broken heart's like living
with no sense of feeling
like life's not worth living
like the air's not worth breathing
without you

Two different stories
Two worlds apart
Not afraid to say goodbye,
just afraid of the cost
Can you explain to me
why walking away is like walking uphill
The hardest part is reaching the top
only to find you still have my heart

Impossible - SIngle

Impossible

STOP
Track 3 of 'Here To Stay'

running into into the blue
trying to find something to do about this headache
i cant believe you're still right here
i asked you to go, yes I told you to leave
but you insist on following me
i think it's restraining order time
 
and i dont care how nice you think my hair is
i dont care what you say about my eyes
 
stop complimenting me
i just wish you'd see
that no means no
that no means go
go away from me
 
running after you
trying to find the words to say that i still like you
i can't believe i let you go
i asked you to go, yeah i told you to leave
but now i wish you'd just follow me
now you say the same thing back to me

HAPPY NEW YEAR
Track 1 of 'Here To Stay'

it's the first day of the year
i can't say i feel too different
come to think of it, not at all
just the same game on a different day
will it ever change?
 
'cause I'm sick and tired
of looking at the world from here
 
happy new year
forget everything you ever knew
run away with me
come run away with me
happy new year
it's just a few months 'til the summer fades to fall
let's get up and go
'cause if we don't now then we never will
 
looking up at the stars
i can't help but think about you
and how i wish that you were here with me
trying to forget your name and face
yeah... wishful thinking...
 
'cause i'm sick and tired
of looking at these stars without you
 
looking back on a broken year
i can't help but wish that you were here
give me a sign, tell me everything's all right
it's time to see that nothing's changing

Happy New Year

FLY AWAY
Track 2 of 'Here To Stay'

tell me why
i can't find the words
to tell you what's inside
what's going on in my head
'cause a year and two months of inconsistency
hasn't built the strongest case for me
to tell you the reality
 
that i don't know what i was thinking
the last time i walked away
 
let's fly away
never looking back
on what lies in the past
it doesn't matter now
let's fly away
let's fly away
 
time would tell
what we mean to one another
i couldn't have been more wrong
with every step you take
i try to fall in time
with every line
but i'm running out of words
to say
 
'cause with every melody
i try to make you see
what you mean to me

HERE TO STAY
Track 4 of 'Here To Stay'

i've been walking in circles for days
trying to find the words to
sweep you off your feet
and i don't know where else to turn
and with every step that i take
i go further away from what's left of my sanity
but that's okay
so long as i'm with you
 
'cause mountains can fall
and the sky can go grey
but while ever you're with me
i'll never walk away
yeah, i'll be here to stay
 
don't you see all my insecurities
are written into melodies
do you see why i'm so shy
when i play my songs for you
'cause with every line i relate
from that thing that i was
to the hardships i have faced
the cause of my self-condemnation
 
and subconsciously
i always feel the need
to earn your affection
and i know it's not right
i wish it weren't so
but it's been instilled in me
 
well i've been trying to find the courage for days
to just say these words
no matter what anyone thinks
and hope you feel the same
i hope you feel the same

Here To Stay

Music and lyrics by Matt O’Kelly and Alex Bartie
Mixed and mastered by Matt O’Kelly

=====================================

She’s heading down the east coast
He’s watching every car go by
Hoping for another try
“Are we not meant to be?”
He’s walking past her new place
She’s hoping that he doesn’t see her face
“Are we not meant to be?”

And every day is just
another conversation Inside his head
And he keeps questioning,
“Are we not meant to be?”
And every day she’s asking,
“What is wrong with me?”
They both keep questioning,
“Are we not meant to,
Are we not meant to be?”

He’s got her number in his phone
But he will never make that call
He’s too scared to take the risk
Too scared to take the fall
She spends her time writing letters
She knows she’ll never send
She’ll fall fast and catch his eye
And start over again

And every day I turn the page
But the story stays the same
neither seem to see
That it’s all just so much simpler than it seems

Are We not Meant to Be?

September In A Day, often compared to Secondhand Serenade and Story of the Year, delivers a powerful, raw emotional sound with a message of events that occur in our lives, relating subjects that we face on a day to day basis, weaved craftily into catchy, memorable melodies. Dedication to writing powerful music and lyrics is the goal, not blending in as just another band, aspiring and inspiring and bringing a certain uniqueness to the table.

Made up of two members, September In A Day has released an EP entitled Here To Stay, recorded a single and played at prime venues around Cape Town in the time they have been together. Having placed in the top 4 and semi-finals of various competitions, September In A Day has turned heads and proved they deserved it as they went up against many bands bigger in following and size, proving that September In A Day is not just any ordinary acoustic band.

After kicking off in late 2011, their first show was played at The Purple Turtle. The band was formed after Alex Bartie and Matt O'Kelly met through their previous band. Soon after, the band headed into studio to start the gradual process of recording their debut EP, Here To Stay. In July 2012, Here To Stay was released independently. This was featured on AFM on the day of the release.

September In A Day was invited to play on the Main Stage at Rock The River 2012-13. However, in August 2012, September In A Day made the difficult decision to take an indefinite break and unfortunately were forced to decline.

In May 2013 the decision was made for September in a Day to return. The band now operates amongst life's happenings, including Alex's work and studies and Matt's studies and involvement in other band projects.

Having played in many places around Cape Town, from Alma Cafe to Mercury Live to the Pepper Club Hotel, September In A Day has turned heads and done nothing less than leave people wanting more.
