I'm Lia Hyman.
I'm 13 years old and I play guitar and piano and am a singer/songwriter. Music isn't a hobby or playtime. Music is the reason I wake up in the morning. Since 3rd grade, I've been singing, playing guitar, and writing my own songs. For my 7th grade talent show, I debuted my first full song, "I Bet He Did". Since then, I have performed at Cafes, open mic nights, festivals, etc. I've written 21 songs total. This song, "I Bet He Did", is me talking to my Ex-Boyfriend's current girlfriend (Did I hear you say Taylor Swift?) telling her basically, "Oh, did he do this? OH, and I bet he did THIS, too!" The song became a huge hit at my school and when he heard it: lets just say he's not planning on messing with me anytime soon. I wrote "I Bet He Did" as a duet and then asked his other Ex-Girlfriend, Catherine, to sing the song with me. We happen to be best friends now! I sing the first verse and chorus, she sings the 2nd verse and chorus, and then we split the bridge and last chorus.
"Hi, I dont think we've met yet..
I, happen to be his ex... nice to meet you..
Wait, let me guess, he treats, you like his princess.... how cute.
He, promised forever, promised that you'd stay together...
and you believed him...cause you just dont wanna leave him.
And I bet he said all them crazy things, to make you think you were his everything...
but turns out that all it meant was NOTHING. And i bet he said you were his world,
by far his most fa-vor-ite girl... that you give him everything he needs...
he said "dont ever, ever, leave me pleaaasseee" I bet he did."
I hope when you watch the video of us performing you don't just two thirteen year old girls who like to sing.
It's two thirteen year old girls who just like you, got their heart broken. But unlike most people, I did something about it.
Here's to the Ex's that we cried over.
Here's to exposing all their secrets.
I Bet He Did,
Lia Hyman
