[Verse 1]
Once upon a time, a few mistakes ago
I was in your sights, you got me alone
You found me, you found me, you found me
I guess you didn't care, and I guess I liked that
And when I fell hard, you took a step back
Without me, without me, without me

[Pre-Chorus]
And he's long gone when he's next to me
And I realize the blame is on me

[Chorus]
'Cause I knew you were trouble when you walked in
So shame on me now
Flew me to places I'd never been
Then you put me down, oh
I knew you were trouble when you walked in
So shame on me now
You flew me to places I'd never been
Now I'm lying on the cold hard ground

[Post-Chorus]
Oh, oh-oh
Trouble, trouble, trouble
Oh, oh-oh
Trouble, trouble

[Verse 2]
No apologies, he'll never see you cry
Pretends he doesn't know that he's the reason why
You're drowning, you're drowning, you're drowning
And I heard you moved on from whispers on the street
A new notch in your belt is all I'll ever be
And now I see, now I see, now I see

[Pre-Chorus]
He was long gone when he met me
And I realize the joke is on me, yeah

[Chorus]
I knew you were trouble when you walked in
So shame on me now
You flew me to places I'd never been
'Til you put me down, no
I knew you were trouble when you walked in
So shame on me now
You flew me to places I'd never been
And now I'm lying on the cold hard ground

[Post-Chorus]
Oh, oh-oh
Trouble, trouble, trouble
Oh, oh-oh
Trouble, trouble

[Bridge]
And the saddest fear, it comes creeping in
That you never loved me
Or her, or anyone, or anything
Yeah

[Outro]
Shame on me now
I knew you were trouble when you walked in
So shame on me now
You flew me to places I'd never been
And now I'm lying on the cold hard ground
Oh, oh-oh, trouble, trouble, trouble
Oh, oh-oh, trouble, trouble, trouble

The Christina Grimmie Foundation – A Legacy of Hope & Inspiration

Before she released her debut EP in 2011, Christina Grimmie entertained fans via the Internet, where she became one of the highest-viewed musicians on YouTube thanks to her scaled-down performances of contemporary pop hits. She launched her YouTube page in 2009 and began covering songs by Adele, Miley Cyrus, and Selena Gomez, accompanying herself on piano and earning a large digital audience in the process. One of her viewers was Selena Gomez’s stepfather, Brian Teefey, who eventually became her manager. With his help, Grimmie released an independent EP in 2011 titled Find Me and hit the road that summer with Gomez, whose music at the time shared a similar dance-pop sound. Her official debut LP, the upbeat pop/rock With Love, was released in 2013. The following year, she auditioned for season six of The Voice and placed third. With her guitar and mentoring from Adam Levine, she made it to the finale with covers of OneRepublic, Drake, and Katy Perry. After the show, she experienced a few changes in labels and resumed work on her sophomore LP. In 2015, she released a trio of singles. “Stay with Me,” a dubstep track with Diamond Eyes, broke the iTunes Electronic Top Five. Her second EP, Side A, was released in 2016 as Grimmie embarked on a tour with Rachel Platten.

On June 10, 2016, Grimmie was shot 3 times and was killed, while signing autographs after her show at The Plaza Live in Orlando, FL with Before You Exit on the All The Lights Tour. She lived to be 22 years old.
