the billboard for every emotion you swore you were hiding.
means The flat region of the face above the eyebrows and below the hairline.
from A plain old compound from Old English 'forheafod' — 'fore' (front) plus 'heafod' (head), so literally 'the front of the head.' 'Heafod' is the ancestor of modern 'head' and a cousin of words across the Germanic family. No mystery here: it's been the front of the head since the language could say so.
