[Verse 1: Ryan Miller]
It was the darkest day
I could tell from the moment you spoke my name
Said in a miserable way
With every year you've come to regret it

[Chorus: Miller/Miller & Adam Gardner]
We've colored in the lines and followed all the signs
Fought a war 'til the war was over (we've colored in the lines)
Said you'd never be the kind with an ordinary life
Now this how it feels to have a broken heart
Heart, heart, heart

[Verse 2: Miller]
Look at the mess we made
Now we stop and say what we always say
And then you make the great escape
With every year you'll come to regret it

[Chorus: Miller/Miller & Gardner]
We've colored in the lines and followed all the signs
Fought a war 'til the war was over (we've colored in the lines)
You said you'd never be the kind with an ordinary life
Now this how it feels to have a broken heart

[Outro: Miller/Miller & Gardner]
And everything we have you think that it's a trap
We fought the war now the war is over (we followed all the signs)
Just that you knew what you would find was an ordinary life
Now this how it feels to have a broken heart
Heart, heart, heart
