[Verse 1]
Okay, my room is such a mess, but I swear I tried my best
Just to clear my head while my life's blowing up
I think I heard it from your friends, you found someone new
They say she's so great for you
I can't respond to all my texts, I leave everyone on read
I'm so glad I'm on my own, I'm so sick of love
I haven't really been alone in eighteen months
It feels so good, but if you ever wanna unblock me, please do
[Pre-Chorus]
I, I've been staying hydrated
'Cause heartbreak's kinda overrated
Sleeping early, not going out late like I used to do with you
[Chorus]
I'm even tryna keep my room clean
Every day, I make my bed just to get you out my head
And I'm even wearing sunscreen
Thirty SPF, yeah, ever since you left
I'm just tryna keep my room clean
Yeah, I'm tryna keep my room clean
[Verse 2]
I think I'm getting pretty good, I avoid your neighborhood
I focus on myself, who I want to be
The world is so much more insane than I ever knew
I see things clearly without you
[Pre-Chorus]
I, I've been staying hydrated
'Cause heartbreak's kinda overrated
Think I'm starting to feel the love that I used to reserve for you
[Chorus]
I'm even tryna keep my room clean
Every day, I make my bed just to get you out my head
And I'm even wearing sunscreen
Thirty SPF, yeah, ever since you left
I'm just tryna keep my room clean
Yeah, I'm tryna keep my room clean
[Bridge]
Not really sure if I found the love of my life yet
There's not a single lover that I regret
I'm pretty sad that we couldn't stay friends
But I guess I get it, babe, you're trying to forget
Mmm, clean
Yeah, I'm tryna keep my room clean
[Outro]
So if you care to ask what's new
I'm doing my best to clean my room
Yeah, I'm tryna to keep my room clean

“Clean” is a fascinating project to me. I originally wrote this song two whole years ago. My fans have been begging for it to come out so I finally concluded it had to happen. I’ve made so many different versions of it, I can’t believe it’s going to be in the world. I first wrote it when I was 19, n...
