Super bored 02:02
Waking up on hold Maybe I'm too old to be a hardworking artist It's getting really hard to unfold Out of my bedsheets it's so cold Man it's so cold There's a world outside But I don't mind There aren't that many interesting things To find out there I think I'll hide here a few days more 'Till I get super bored There's a world out there but I don't care Don't try to pull me out oh don't you dare I ain't going nowhere There's a world out there but I don't care Don't try to pull me out oh don't you dare Don't try to pull me out There's a world outside But I don't mind I think I'll hide here a few days more There's a world outside But I don't mind There's a world outside But I don't mind I think I'll hide here a few days more 'Till I get super bored

Don't worry 01:46
Don't worry You don't need to hurry Let's take some extra time to stay in bed today The time we never have Don't worry You don't need to hurry because of me Let's take some time and get some sleep Back to work today On a grey afternoon I won't be home 'till all the bars close their doors And pretty soon we'll miss those blissful hours Like memories so sweet and sour Life shut it's mouth and raise a hand for a timeout Don't worry You don't need to hurry Let's take some extra time to stay in bed today The time we never have Don't worry You don't need to hurry because of me Let's take some time and get some sleep

You all have your ways and I have mine On most days it's more than fine But sometimes I'd just Leave it all behind Leave it all behind Leave it Leave it all behind Leave it all behind Leave it This city has so much to offer It can comfort and hold you till your heart explodes It's almost large enough to blend in and disappear But it's more like a whisper everyone can hear And since there's no space to hide Sometimes I feel like running to a place That this life will never find And just Leave it all behind Leave it all behind Leave it Leave it all behind Leave it all behind Leave it

As soon as my mind starts switching lanes I swear I start to feel like I'm going insane Some days I fear that everyone here will disappear Before my eyes so please stay near I want you and my family here And my dear friends Pick a viewpoint and hold hands Watch how the world ends I want you around when this ends I'll need you around when the world ends

I eat and sleep and I do everything here I left my room cause feared that the ground will start moving again I miss my friends I miss my parents I miss having a beer I'll stay at home please just don't take anyone dear to me I'm so glad Tara's here, we always do the best we can When I'm on tour I miss my home and now I miss the van We booked so many shows and all of them got canceled Tried to reschedule now we're penciled in for next year I have such fucked up dreams And I can barely sleep It's almost like our fridge is complaining How it's suddenly full When eating out was almost a rule I should feel safe here but I can't anymore Thank god for music, I will never get bored During the past few weeks I cried at least a dozen times Tara and me we own this shit and we barely even try What a weird time to be alive Suddenly thankful for my 9 to 5 What a weird time to be alive I have such fucked up dreams And I can barely sleep It's almost like our fridge is complaining How it's suddenly full When eating out was almost a rule

Yellow house 03:13
Dancing out to some familiar tones Old tunes on my phone, I'm alone at home The sea wind hits my face I'm so glad this place exists My wardrobe's full of old band T-shirts And all my socks are filled with holes A bunch of sweaters that my parents wore in the 90's These old things have such a soul It's just a yellow house On a hill, on an island far away It's real though it doesn't feel real Since rarely someone stays here for more than a day It's just a yellow house On a hill, on an island far away From whatever's happening today From whatever's happening today Summers start out super slow But time speeds up and flies straight out the window Some friends there I met twenty years ago, Man we met fucking twenty years ago That's twenty years, a million beers, A billion smiles and a trillion cheers On an island that always feels so near Wherever I go my heart sits here In the yellow house On a hill, on an island far away It's real though it doesn't feel real Since rarely someone stays here for more than a day It's just a yellow house On a hill, on an island far away From whatever's happening today From whatever's happening today

about

These songs were supposed to serve as blueprints for a new full-band Trophy record (and still will), but we decided to go out with this material anyway since there's a certain emotion captured in it that probably resonates best with the current situation we're all in.
Beginning of the epidemic, earthquakes in Zagreb, childhood fears, personal struggles and questioning of both the future and the past.
This all led to this short EP that tries to depict Antun's daily stream of thoughts, (almost) chronologically from morning till falling asleep, dreaming of a yellow house on an island far away.
Each song has a short story or a distinct feeling tied to it.
It's cheesy and of questionable quality, but it's definitely real.

The album was recorded in the spring of 2020.
