about

'November 2019 while watching a documentary about or reading about criminal investigations I got inspired and subsequently wrote down a song idea that when you kill someone inside your house with a lot of blood as a result you have to clean all the other rooms as well, for if you only mop, scrub and vacuum the scene of the murder this one room will stand out because of its cleanliness compared to the others. On the final day of 2019 I wrote a mid tempo song about this much overlooked fact. For the music for the verses I used a chord pattern that had been laying around since February 2019, while the music for the chorus got written on the spot. The song was first performed during a streaming gig on June 25, 2021 -- right after its release -- and was done two more times until April 17, 2022.'

lyrics

When you murder your spouse
In a room at your house
Bloodily breaking your marriage vows

Then make sure not to clean
Only the murder scene
Ev’ry cop here will know what I mean

Chorus:
‘Cause if you only clean one room
It will stand out from the rest
Leaving room to assume
What otherwise would be a wild guess

Life may continue just fine
If you take your time
And clean up the entire house of the crime

Then you can safely put forth
A missing persons report
As long as no one can prove you know more

Chorus:
But if you only clean one room
It will stand out from the rest
Leaving room to assume
You’re not completely honest at best
