Losing vs (king + bishop)

So i was playing in bullet (1+0) and i run out of time, but the strange thing is that my opponent just had a king and bishop, so... shouldn't that be a draw ? I'm confused
Yes, it should... but only if you lose all of your pieces first. If you still have pieces on the board and your opponent has a piece that can still check/checkmate you, then you could possibly lose. Crazy, but true.
oh yeah right you can be checkmated if for example you're blocked with your own pieces, nevermind that's logical!
thanks :)
