Trophies

Tucked away high up in the rafters
All of the dreams I once chased after
Status and power
Lives inside these figurines

Without sunlight
Years really changed them
Tarnished
The varnish
That used to embrace them
Each celebration
Packed up with meaningless things

All of the pictures
And jerseys are tattered
All of the grit
And the spit
And the laughter
Is it just me
Or is time moving faster
Cause there was a time yeah
When nothing else mattered

These trophies
Born out of glory
Turned into stories
I remember it so well
Remember when Rome fell
Victory never gets old
These trophies
Remind me of cold winter mornings
Stadiums roaring
The past is encased
It can't be erased
Like headstones engraved in gold

Partners in crime
That's never changing
Telephone calls
Seem to be fading
Its all part of aging
Raising our own families

All of these pictures
And jerseys are tattered
All of the grit
And the spit
And the laughter
Is it just me
Or is time moving faster
Cause there was a time yeah
When nothing else mattered

These trophies
Born out of glory
Turned into stories
I remember it so well
Remember when Rome fell
Victory never gets old
These trophies
Remind me of cold winter mornings
Stadiums roaring
The past is encased
It can't be erased
Like headstones engraved in gold

Broken hearts
Broken bones
Broken plays
Broken homes
Together
We weathered
The worst of the storm
It was never
Ever
About these

Trophies
Born out of glory
Turned into stories
I remember it so well
Remember when Rome fell
Victory never gets old
These trophies
Remind me of cold winter mornings
Stadiums roaring
The past is encased
It can't be erased
Like headstones engraved in gold
Headstones engraved in gold
Headstones engraved in gold
