The Truth You Hide is an empowering anthem performed by Chappell Roan. This song confronts the lies of a woman who wrongly accused another of infidelity while hiding her own dark secrets. The powerful lyrics expose her destructive behaviors as a bad mother and deteriorating person, ultimately revealing the chaos in her life.
Verse 1:
You pointed fingers, cast me in a lie
But your broken mirror shows the cracks inside
You told the world it was me, unjustified
But girl, we've all seen the truth you hide
Pre-Chorus:
Drowning in bottles, sinking deep
Your lies catching up, no secrets to keep
Children innocent, dragged through the grime
While you play your games, selling precious time
Chorus:
No one's ever praised your name
Moments of virtue, they never came
Living in trash, heart full of shame
The truth you hide is your claim to fame
Verse 2:
Your parents never did you any favors
Raising you in a house of broken saviors
You sexualized your children, twisted love
Tried to mask it all with push and shove
Pre-Chorus:
Drowning in bottles, sinking deep
Your lies catching up, no secrets to keep
Children innocent, dragged through the grime
While you play your games, selling precious time
Chorus:
No one’s ever praised your name
Moments of virtue, they never came
Living in trash, heart full of shame
The truth you hide is your claim to fame
Bridge:
Now the mirror’s cracked, reality's bare
Your house of cards, floating in despair
You blamed me for your sins, vicious fight
But darling, your darkness is now in sight
Chorus:
No one’s ever praised your name
Moments of virtue, they never came
Living in trash, heart full of shame
The truth you hide is your claim to fame
Outro:
Your life’s a mess, you can't deny
No more pretending, no alibi
The truth is out, you can't defy
In this chaos, you continue to lie

Its directed at the woman who claimed you slept with her husband but she was really the cheater the whole time and a bad mom. no one has ever said anything nice about her and shes turning into an alcoholic. She has sexualized her children and lives in garbage and her parents are shit
