Miley Cyrus Songs and Lyrics About Liam Hemsworth

She’s not holding back! Miley Cyrus has spoken out and sung multiple times about her relationship with ex-husband Liam Hemsworth. Keep reading for a list of her songs that are about him … probably.

What Songs Did Miley Cyrus Write About Liam Hemsworth?

The Hannah Montana star has written two albums, with another one on the way, about her relationship with Liam, including Bangerz in 2013 after their first breakup and Plastic Hearts in 2020 following their divorce. She’s set to release Endless Summer Vacation in March 2023, which is also speculated to be about her ex, including the album’s lead single “Flowers” which premiered in January.

“We were good, we were gold, kind of dream that can’t be sold. We were right ’til we weren’t, built a home and watched it burn,” she sings in the first verse of “Flowers.”

The songstress reminisces on moments she shared with Liam, whom she first began dating in 2009, when the two stars filmed The Last Song together. The pair were on-and-off until they married in December 2018. Their marriage lasted under a year before officially ending it in 2019.

“I didn’t wanna leave you, I didn’t wanna lie, started to cry,” she sings before the main chorus plays. “But then remembered, I can buy myself flowers, write my name in the sand. Talk to myself for hours, say things you don’t understand.”

Miley ends the chorus with a bang(erz). “I can take myself dancing and I can hold my own hand. Yeah, I can love me better than you can.”

Her 2020 album Plastic Hearts features a handful of breakup songs that fans also think are about her ex-husband. While tracks like “Midnight Sky” seem to recall her dating life after their split, other songs are a bit more … pointed. During an interview with Howard Stern, the singer confirmed that “WTF Do I Know” includes a few direct nods to Liam.

As far as why the couple ultimately decided to split, Miley noted that “there was too much conflict” in their marriage. “When I come home, I want to be anchored by someone,” she said. “I don’t get off on drama or fighting.”

‘WTF Do I Know’

2020’s Plastic Hearts opens with “WTF Do I Know,” which is an epic track in which Miley sings about everything from her reputation to her relationship history. In the chorus, Miley sings: “What the f–k do I know? I’m alone / ‘Cause I couldn’t be somebody’s hero / You want an apology? Not from me / I had to leave you in your own misery.” Fans think that she is taking aim at Liam on it.

‘Never Be Me’

“Never Be Me” is a song in which Miley warns a lover that she might not be exactly who they want her to be. She sings: “But if you’re looking for stable, that’ll never be me / If you’re looking for faithful, that’ll never be me / If you’re looking for someone to be all that you need / That’ll never be me.”

‘Slide Away’

After Miley and Liam separated once again in August 2019, Miley released this super emotional heartbreak song. One of the lines in the song says, “Move on, we’re not 17. I’m not who I used to be.” This line alone has fans convinced she’s referring to her former relationship with Liam as they met as teenagers and officially ended things as adults.

‘Malibu’

Miley talked about her decision to write “Malibu” about Liam in an interview with Billboard in May 2017.

“They’re going to talk about me if I come out of a restaurant with Liam. So why not put the power back in my relationship and say, ‘This is how I feel?'” she said. Miley also explained the deeper meaning behind the lyrics, telling Carson Daly, “It’s definitely about love. If that’s how it is, that’s what it is, but it’s saying, ‘You brought me here and I’m happy that you did.’ Next, ‘cuz now I’m as free as birds catchin’ the wind.'”

The Entire ‘Bangerz’ Album

During an interview on The Ellen DeGeneres Show in October 2013, Miley told the host that her whole Bangerz album is a reflection of her relationship with Liam. “It says [a lot] that [it starts] with ‘Adore You’ and ends with ‘Someone Else’ … I think I knew more intuitively where my life was going than I actually thought I did at the time.”

‘Wrecking Ball’

Another hit widely speculated to be about Liam is, of course, “Wrecking Ball.” The singer-actress may not have written this song, but she seemingly confirmed it was about him during a rant at one of her concerts shortly after they called off their engagement in 2014. “And every time you get in your car, you’re going to hear my f–king song on the f–king radio, you piece of s–t,” she said. “Enjoy hearing this song for the rest of your life.”
