[Verse 1]
Almost made me lose my cool for a minute
Almost forgot who I am for minute
Almost forgot that you should count all your lucky stars
That you ever even had me for a minute (Woo)

[Pre-Chorus]
I mind my business and I still get burned
But it's only painful if I let it hurt
Go ahead and fill up all your voids with parts of her
I won't be holding my breath

[Chorus]
You said, "I'm happy that I found you"
But boy, you went in for the kill
You said, "I've never, ever, ever met a girl like you"
And, boy, you never will
Boy, you never will

[Post-Chorus]
Da-da, da-da, da-da-da
Da-da, da-da, da-da-da

[Verse 2]
No one's gonna see you and hear you and feel you quite as well
Don't tell me you can't tell
How can you notice what a real thing is
If you don't even know yourself? Yeah

[Pre-Chorus]
Go mind your Ps and Qs, I'll mind my own
But don't you come knocking when you're alone
'Cause I have been pushed as far as I can go
And I won't hold my breath

[Chorus]
You said, "I'm happy that I found you"
But boy, you went in for the kill
You said, "I've never, ever, ever met a girl like you"
And, boy, you never will
Boy, you never will

[Bridge]
You won't get any of my tears; no, not this time
Lucky for you, I have been hurt enough to know I'll be fine

[Pre-Chorus]
I mind my business and I still get burned
I'm too young to care, too old to let it hurt
I am not your second choice if I'm not the first
So don't hold your breath

[Chorus]
You said, "I'm happy that I found you"
But boy, you went in for the kill
You said, "I've never, ever, ever met a girl like you"
And, boy, you never will
Boy, you never will
Boy, you never will, da-da

(Girl, that's good, I like that!)

She first started to gain popularity when she posted a cover of Justin Timberlake’s “Mirrors.” Soon after, her cover of The Neighbourhood’s “Sweater Weather” took off.
