Miley Cyrus has moved on from heartbreak, and in a new song, she expresses her recovery.

The singer, who has had hits in genres such as country, rock, and pop, released “Flowers,” a single off her forthcoming 13-track album “Endless Summer Vacation,” on Friday.

Cyrus sings in the song about finding self-love after heartache. Cyrus appears to answer Mars’ famous lyrics “I should have bought you flowers / And held your hand / Should have given you all my hours / When I had the chance / Take you to every party ’cause all you wanted to do was dance” in her own chorus, which samples the 2012 Bruno Mars song “When I Was Your Man.”

She sings, “I can buy myself flowers.” Yes, I can love myself more than you.

Cyrus released the song on the 33rd birthday of her ex-husband Liam Hemsworth, which her admirers believe was no coincidence.

Ten years after meeting on a film set and less than a year into their marriage, Cyrus and Hemsworth divorced in 2019. The former couple met in 2009 while filming “The Last Song” by Nicholas Sparks and announced their engagement in 2012. In early 2016, Cyrus resumed wearing her engagement ring, and the pair wed in Tennessee in December 2018.

Miley Cyrus and Liam Hemsworth divorce less than a year after their marriage.

In a 2020 interview with Rolling Stone, Cyrus revealed that, contrary to how she was depicted, she was unhappy and on a downward spiral in 2018.

“”She has a man. She resides in a house posing as a wife.” Cyrus stated that she was also experimenting with booze and drugs. The last time my sanity was questioned, I was significantly less erratic than I was at that moment.

During her romance with Liam Hemsworth, Miley Cyrus claims she was not “living a fairy tale.”

Cyrus released “Flowers,” the lead single off of eighth album Endless Summer Vacation, on the birthday of her ex-husband, Liam Hemsworth; the detail has been widely interpreted as a parting shot at the actor, but really, the song focuses far more on self-sustainability than revenge, trading the melancholy of a song like 2019’s “Slide Away” for a more assertive outlook. “No remorse, no regret/ I forgive every word you said,” Cyrus sings, a subtle disco-pop arrangement supporting her steps forward. If the lyrical concept of “Flowers” was a red herring, the single also fakes out any listener expecting a full-blown reinvention with the single — this is sturdy, hummable pop, and it captivates without bells or whistles.
