And no, Princess Die is good, but it's NOT her best unreleased song!

pop ate my heart

The song is VERY layered. And this is what I could come up with, based on what she said in interviews and what the Vegas show is about

'Enigma', the song is about Lady Gaga the "persona", and her desperately wondering if it's really herself when she's on stage, if it's an alter ego she needed to create for herself when she was young in order to feel more confident with the public, but also about what 'Lady Gaga' has become through the years in her career. She said in interviews it's a complete mystery to her that she cannot wrap her head around to this day.

But ALSO, based on what she said in Zane Lowe, it's not just about her (Stefani), Lady Gaga and the struggling relationship between both. It's also about how everyone of us around the world put ourselves out there through social media and show a virtual image of ourselves, creating our own 'Enigmas'. And, in the song, she's wondering if what we show to the world through technology is real and comes from a genuine place, or if it's fake and just a facade to fit in society (which can be toxic at a certain degree and turn on you, as she said with Zane). Or maybe a bit of both? Who knows, it's an enigma after all

That's how she percieves that particular part of the world, which is what Chromatica's all about.
