Miley Cyrus does not have. In her new song “Muddy Feet,” from her album “Endless Summer Vacation,” the singer appears to address a cheating partner, telling her to “get out of my house with this shit” in the emotional pop ballad. Following speculation that her single “Flowers” was intended for her ex-husband, Liam Hemsworth, some fans speculate that these lyrics could also be directed at him, although Cyrus never explicitly mentions anyone by name.
A few lines in particular catch the eye. “And you smell the perfume I didn’t buy / Now I know why you closed the curtains,” Cyrus sings in the pre-chorus, alluding to infidelity. “You watered the weeds and you killed all the roses,” she continues in a subtle nod to her “Flowers” lyrics. “Worthy arrives when the other door closes.”
Cyrus and Hemsworth began dating after meeting on the set of “The Last Song” in 2009. They then announced their engagement in 2012 before going their separate ways soon after. The couple got back together in January 2016 and married in 2018. Cyrus and Hemsworth separated for good seven months later in August 2019, with Cyrus’ rep saying, “Ever-evolving, changing as a partners and individuals, they decided that was best while they both focused on themselves and their careers.” Currently, Cyrus is in a relationship with drummer Maxx Morando, whom she has been dating since December 2021.
As she makes a rock star return to music, Cyrus’ songs inspire speculation as to why she broke up with Hemsworth. Listeners have wondered before if songs like “Wrecking Ball” and “Malibu” were written with Hemsworth in mind, but Cyrus has never directly confirmed or denied such theories. Still, many of the songs on the new record more generally reflect her past relationships, leaving more room for interpretation. Ahead, we’ve broken down the lyrics to “Muddy Feet” in their entirety so you can decide for yourself Cyrus’ true intentions.

I don’t know
Who the hell do you think you’re playing with

Get out my house with that shit
Get the fuck out of my life with that shit

Now I know why you closed the curtains (Uh-uh)
Get the hell out of my house
CHORUS
You come
