Tell the Truth is a rock album by Billy Squier that was released in April 1993.[2] It contains the single "Angry", and the ballad "Lovin' You Ain't So Hard".

It was not supported by Capitol Records, causing Billy Squier to walk away from the music industry for five years. In the US, the disc failed to chart and sold less than 100,000 copies, making it the poorest selling album of his decade and a half with the EMI-Capitol organization.
