Jigsaw

from Fingerprint EP by Stylusboy

about

I wrote this song after I walked past a jigsaw that had been dropped on the floor outside my local chip shop. It got me thinking about the idea of a jigsaw being a bit like the pieces of your life. So I asked lots of questions about the pieces of the jigsaw. Some people store the pieces of their jigsaw carefully and don't share them with anyone else. What is it that makes your jigsaw complete? Is it not complete? Are you missing something? Do you know what is missing?

lyrics

Are your pieces hidden away?
Up on shelf gathering dust
Are your pieces scattered all around?
Under the chair, in the plant pot
Are you pieces laid out for all to see?
The outline is there with a missing piece

Your make my jigsaw so complete
A site to behold
Beautiful
Your make my jigsaw so complete
A sight to behold
Beautiful

Her delicate pieces placed so carefully
Always correct and so direct
His small pieces spread out on the floor
They’re just colour coded with no clear picture.
Someone’s pieces spilled out on the floor
Lost this day or meant that way?

Your make my jigsaw so complete
A sight to behold
Beautiful
Your make my jigsaw so complete
A sight to behold
Beautiful

Are your pieces beautiful?
Are your pieces beautiful?
Are your pieces beautiful?
Are your pieces beautiful?
