As far as I know, lichess says that if your king and any one piece along with your opponent's king and his one piece, the opponent starting the endgame of piece versus piece would win, so when time runs out, you lose, atleast if its not pawn versus pawn or unbalanced positions. Chess.com would not say a draw until time runs out. But if you have a close winning chance, you would lose if time runs out.
