“Jigsaw” is the third pre-release single off of Japanese-American singer, Conan Gray’s sophomore album, Superache.
“Jigsaw” follows the pop-ballad style that is used in most of Conan’s songs, mixed in with rock elements played during the chorus and further on in the song. The song is lyrically abou...
[Intro]
(Ooh-ooh, ooh)
(Ooh-ooh, ooh)
[Verse 1]
If changing my clothes would make you like me more
If changing my hair would make you care
Then I'd grab the kitchen scissors
And cut myself to slivers
For you
If being more polite would keep you satisfied
If being less insane would make you stay
Then I'd be more like my sister
Say, "Thank you Ma'am and Mister"
To you, for you
[Chorus]
I've changed every part of me
Until the puzzle pieces aren't me, at all
I look in the mirror, now I'm just a jigsaw, ah-ah, ah
Ah, ah-ah
You take every part of me, all of thе things you need
Then the rest you discard
I look in thе mirror, now I'm just a jigsaw, ah-ah, ah
Ah, ah, ah
[Verse 2]
All I did just to make you happy
Still you don't even fuckin' love me
(Jigsaw, jigsaw, jigsaw, jigsaw)
Killin' parts of myself to fit you
Clear as shit I was not the issue
If I made you like me, would I even like myself?
Pointin' out all my flaws doesn't help
[Bridge]
Why don't you love me?
Don't you love me?
[Chorus]
I've changed every part of me
Until the puzzle pieces aren't me, at all
I look in the mirror, now I'm just a jigsaw, ah-ah, ah
Ah, ah-ah
You take every part of me, all of the things you need
Then the rest you discard
I look in the mirror, now I'm just a jigsaw, ah-ah, ah
Ah, ah, ah

I wrote “Jigsaw” originally as a bit of a diary entry rant for myself. I’d spent my entire life contorting myself and changing everything I used to be in order to make everybody happy. I was so used to trying to please everyone that, when it came to love, I started to do the same. I thought maybe if...
‘Jigsaw’ was the one part of the album where I really needed to express how angry it makes me that when you love somebody, it doesn’t matter who they are, it’s so hard to please them sometimes. You feel pressure to please them or become what they want you to be. I ended up getting in this argument w...
