The Pierces Unreleased Songs Lyrics
1.Go To Heaven

Lyricist:Allison Pierce, Catherine Pierce

Hey, come on
And take off all the clothes that you have on
And make love to me until the sun
Comes up or until we decide we are done

Or until all the prayers
That go to heaven get an answer
Ooh ooh ooh, ooh ooh ooh

You are absurd
You say the cutest things I've ever heard
I don't think I can take another word

Or my head might explode
And i will have to go to heaven
Ooh ooh ooh, ooh ooh ooh
Love me, love me, love me

No, I said I do not think
That it's all in your head
But we may not find out
Until we're dead

Or until earth explodes
And everybody goes to heaven
Ooh ooh ooh, ooh ooh ooh


2.Louisa

Lyricist:Allison Margaret Pierce, Catherine Eleanor Pierce

I heard about it last week
That you were thinking about leaving me
Oh, you can be so sweet
But you can be such a stubborn girl when you wanna be

Louisa, won't you think it over?
Won't you think it down?
Louisa, if you won't think it over
Will you look me up when you come around?

Don't you know you're my best friend
And I've been having such a hard time making new ones
I guess everything comes to an end
I hide you for a moment and now you're gone

Louisa, won't you think it over?
Won't you think it down?
Louisa, if you won't think it over
Will you look me up when you come around?

You see, I'm afraid that you'll go far away
And raise a family that I will never see
Don't you know that I need to see your face
(To see your face, to see your face)

I heard about it last week
That you were thinking about leaving me
Oh, I want you to be happy
But I can be such a stubborn girl when I wanna be

Louisa, won't you think it over?
Won't you think it down?
Louisa, if you won't think it over
Will you look me up when you come around?


3.Three Wishes

Lyricist:Allison Margaret Pierce, Catherine Eleanor Pierce

We'd be so less fragile if we're made from metal
And our hearts from iron and our minds from steel
If we built an armor for our tender bodies
Could we love each other? Would we strive to feel?

And you want three wishes
One to fly the heavens, one to swim like fishes
And then one you're saving for a rainy day
If your lover ever takes her love away

You say you want to know her like a lover
And undo her damage, she'll be new again
Soon you'll find that if you try to save her
It will renews her anger, you will never win

And you want three wishes
You want never bitter and all delicious
And then one you're saving for a rainy day
If your lover ever takes her love away

You want three wishes
One to fly the heavens, one to swim like fishes
You want never bitter and all delicious
And a clean conscience and all it's blisses

You want one true lover with a thousand kisses
You want soft and gentle and never vicious
And then one you're saving for a rainy day
If your lover ever takes her love away


4.Kill, Kill, Kill

Lyricist:Allison Pierce, Catherine Pierce

What were you doing
In my dream last night, honey
Well, I thought I liked
That you're uptight, baby

Well, it's a mystery to me
How you keep on slipping in my mind
And it's downright dirty
That this old wound won't heal with time

Well, you could wash my brain
You could tear out my heart
But I would never forget you

You could change my world
I could make a new start
But I would never forget you

And it's kill, kill, killing me
And it's kill, kill, killing me
That I'm still in love with you

Just when I think
I've got you in safe keeping
That's when your memory
It comes 'round creeping

Well, it's an ache i can't shake
And it's creeped down deep into my core
But babe, I can't fake it
I can't take this heartbreak anymore

Well, you could wash my brain
You could tear out my heart
But I would never forget you

You could change my world
I could make a new start
But I would never forget you

And it's kill, kill, killing me
And it's kill, kill, killing me
That I'm still in love with you

I asked you please to leave my heart
But you refused to go
I can't take this pain much longer
You insist on teaching me what I already know
Absence made this heart grow fonder


5.It Was You

Lyricist:Allison Pierce, Catherine Pierce

Well, I've been lying here all alone
Wondering if you are
Ever coming home
I left on the light by the bed

In case, you could come to call
What is wrong with me?
I said, to myself

I never really thought it would last
And here I am now fading fast
But I will not sleep tonight
No, I could not sleep tonight

Where would you go?
What would you do?
If it wasn't me, it was you

Where would you go?
And what would you do?
If it wasn't me, it was you
If it wasn't me, it was you

If only you could feel my heart race
And see the light on my face
Then you would know the truth
And I would know the truth

Then maybe you don't like what I brought
Well, maybe I am not what you thought
But don't worry you are not
What I thought you were either

Where would you go?
What would you do?
If it wasn't me, it was you

Where would you go?
And what would you do?
If it wasn't me, it was you
If it wasn't me, it was you

No matter how hard it gets
No matter how thick your head is
There's always something more to learn
Even if you just want to quit

Where would you go?
And what would you do?
If it wasn't me, it was you

Where would you go?
And what would you do?
Where would you go?
And what would you do?

Where would you go?
And what would you do?
Where would you go?
And what would you do?

If it wasn't me, it was you
If it wasn't me, it was you
If it wasn't me, it was you


6.A Way To Us

Lyricist:Allison Margaret Pierce, Catherine Eleanor Pierce, Brian
Sperber

Slow moving train
Slow moving bus
Slow moving plane
I've got to find a way to us

And now outside, the driving rain
It keeps me in, and I know I must
Find a way to get through the pain
I've got to find a way to us

Well, I want you
But I want you to believe in my life
It's now or never
I want you to hold your body close to me
I feel alive together

Your eyes they tell of the deepest places
And I need a man I can trust
So drink up now, for the celebration
Of finding a way to us

Well, I want you
But I want you to believe in my life
It's now or never
I want you to hold your body close to me
I feel alive together

It took so long for you to see
(It took so long for you to see)
What you wanted us to be
It took so long for you to see
(It took so long to see)

Well, I want you
But I want you to believe in my life
It's now or never
I want you to hold your body close to me
I feel alive together

Slow moving train
I've got to find a way to us


7.The Way

Lyricist:Allison Margaret Pierce

Don't you walk away from me
Because I know that
This is where you want to be
I will listen to your stories
But do you think I will want to heal?

Oh, the way the way the way you talk about her
Oh, the way you look at me
Oh, the way the way you hear my whispers
Oh, the way the way the way

And all I want is what I cannot have
Why does it always seem to be this way?
Oh, I will take what you give
Take what you give to me
But it's not good enough, not good enough

Oh I want the way the way you talk about her
To be the way the way you talk about me
Oh, the way the way you give yourself free
Oh, the way the way the way, yeah

When will I ever learn?
The one thing that draws me near to you
For peace is not out of my reach
Just drawn inside until I open my eye

I know the way I always do this to myself
Only makes it harder
But I love the way the way you give yourself free
Oh, the way the way the way

Oh, I want the way the way you talk about her
To be the way the way the way you talk about me
Oh, the way the way you I give yourself free
Oh, the way, the way, the way


8.Patience

Lyricist:Allison Margaret Pierce, Catherine Eleanor Pierce

Maybe you like the chains
Maybe you like the grace
To see this for what it really is

Baby, I need some space
'Cause love I can see your face
So close to mine, close to mine

I need you to just be patient
I need you to just be patient
Love, love, love

Baby, don't take my heart
'Cause it's the only part
That is my own, is my own

Baby, you need my cry
Darlin' just know that I
Sometimes need to be alone

I need you to just be patient
I need you to just be patient
Love, love, love

I need you to just be patient
I need you to just be patient
Love, love, love


9.I Feel Nothing

Lyricist:Allison Margaret Pierce

Now no time to discover
All the things we were gonna be
And no way to recover
All the pieces of you and me

Now my life is calling
With no way to tell where it's going

Maybe you'd want me back this time
And maybe you'd stay
Maybe you'd want me back this time
But baby, I say

I feel nothing, I feel nothing
I feel nothing, I feel nothing
I feel nothing

I know that somewhere inside me
You're not totally gone
But I've not yet decided
If it's right or it's wrong

Now it seems you're calling
Leave a message after the tone

Maybe you'd want me back this time
And maybe you'd stay
Maybe you'd want me back this time
But baby, I say

I feel nothing, I feel nothing
I feel nothing, I feel nothing
I feel nothing

Who's to say what happens next?
Momma told me never to say never
Who's to say what happens next?
Who's to say, I'll feel like this forever?

I feel nothing, I feel nothing
I feel nothing, I feel nothing
I feel nothing


10.I Don't Need You

Lyricist:Catherine Eleanor Pierce

He treats me fine but I could be better
You bring the wine and I read your letter
I'm on my own feeling like a liar
I'm almost home but I'm getting tired

You never could look back
You never would look back
Because, I don't need you and you don't need me
I don't need you; you don't need me

I said goodbye, but I just regret it
Let's make things right, but you'll never let it

You never could look back
You never would look back
I don't need you and you don't need me
I don't need you; you don't need me

I don't need you and you don't need me
I don't need you, you don't need me
I don't need you, you don't need me

I don't need you, I don't need you
I don't need you, I don't need you
I don't need you, I don't need you


11.I Don't Mind

Lyricist:Allison Margaret Pierce, Catherine Eleanor Pierce, Brian
Sperber

What will you do now everyone has gone home?
Leaving in quiet and leaving us to be alone
I waited too long to say
I tried to pretend, I only want you to stay

If just for tonight
Don't let me go, I won't mind it
Maybe it's right, we will never know
I don't mind it

The day is through now, doesn't feel right
I can't stand the quiet so I lay awake all through the night
We'll journey on and just let it play
Don't ever let it end, I only want you to stay

If just for tonight
Don't let me go, I won't mind it
Maybe it's right, we will never know
I don't mind it

Wait for a moment
But there's nothing that I can say to you
So go if you wanna
There's nothing left for me to do

If just for tonight
Don't let me go, I won't mind it
Maybe it's right, we will never know
I don't mind it

If just for tonight
Don't let me go, I won't mind it
Maybe it's right, we will never know
I don't mind it

I don't mind it
I don't mind it
I don't mind it


12.Be Alright

Lyricist:Catherine Eleanor Pierce

This problem is a decade old
My longing has been oversold
I've been repaid a thousand fold
But still I wait for more

A gentle pull, you bring me down
A hazy gloom, my glimmer drowns
Hands will ache and hearts will pound
At my chamber door

And I just wanna be right
But I can't stand to see us fight
And I don't wanna see you cry
When I know I am the reason why

And I just wanna feel free
So I can just know you'll be
So I can just know you'll be
You'll be alright

Forgive me, take my back to sleep
Cling to me but let me weep
A gentle spirit starts to creep
Now it's running fast

And I just wanna be right
But I can't stand to see us fight
And I don't wanna see you cry
When I know I am the reason why

And I just wanna feel free
So I can just know you'll be
So I can just know you'll be
You'll be alright

Tangled in the hearts of men
Pondering my deadly sin
Roll me over; breathe me in
Live on me for a while

And I just wanna be right
But I can't stand to see us fight
And I don't wanna see you cry
When I know I am the reason why

And I just wanna feel free
So I can just know you'll be
So I can just know you'll be

And I just wanna be right
But I can't stand to see us fight
And I don't wanna see you cry
When I know I am the reason why

And I just wanna feel free
So I can just know you'll be
So I can just know you'll be
You'll be alright, you'll be alright
You'll be alright


13.Lies

Lyricist:Roger Greenawalt, Allison Pierce, Catherine Pierce

La la lie la la lie la la lie
La la lie la la lie la la lie
La la lie la la lie la la lie
La la lie la la lie la la lie, ha

I've got a real one for you
I'm done with compromise
Lies of white and black and blue
They hide inside those big brown eyes

You've got me, dirty angel
Aren't you ready to come clean?
When I'm looking down with sorrow
You say that I'm being mean

Don't you hear me when I say I'm lonely?
Do I kid myself to think
That I am your one and only?

I can't tell you how many times
I've cried over you, my baby
I've had one too many
Sleepless nights over you
My baby, baby, ah

Can't you see I'm wounded, baby?
Go ahead and put me down
You keep saying that I'm crazy
There's just rumors going 'round

I'm dying to believe you
Tell me, what else should I do?
Who would want to play a fool
Then find out it was true?

Don't you hear me
When I say I'm lonely?
Do I kid myself to think
That I am your one and only?

I can't tell you how many times
I've cried over you, my baby
I've had one too many
Sleepless nights over you, my baby

Baby, ah
Baby, ha

Cross your heart and hope to die
White or black it's still a lie
Every city that you fly
I sit home and wonder why

While you're out there getting high
One more night for me to cry
Can you look me in the eye
Cross your heart and hope to die

Hope to die, hope to die
Hope to die, hope to die

I can't tell you how many times
I've cried over you, my baby
I've had one too many
Sleepless nights over you, my baby

I can't tell you how many times
I've cried over you, my baby
I've had one too many
Sleepless nights over you, my baby

I can't tell you how many times
I've cried over you, my baby
I've had one too many
Sleepless nights over you, my baby


14.Beautiful Thing

Lyricist:Allison Margaret Pierce, Catherine Eleanor Pierce, Brian
Sperber

I didn't know that I would love you like I do
I didn't think that I was ready to
But there's something about the way you take my hand
It's like I never touched a man

And it's a beautiful thing
You make me shy and you make me proud
It's a beautiful thing, you make me laugh out loud
And when you pull me to you I unravel

I didn't know that love would fill me up so good
I tried before but then you know it never would
But there's something about the way you call my name
Now I'll never feel the same

And it's a beautiful thing
You make me shy and you make me proud
It's a beautiful thing, you make me laugh out loud
And when you pull me to you I unravel

And when you hold me I feel more and more a woman
I never knew that I could feel so free
And when you hold me I feel more and more a woman
I never knew that I could feel so free

And it's a beautiful thing
You make me shy and you make me proud
It's a beautiful thing, you make me laugh out loud
And when you pull me to you

And it's a beautiful thing
You make me shy and you make me proud
It's a beautiful thing, you make me laugh out loud
And when you pull me to you I unravel

I didn't know that I would love you like I do
I didn't think that I was ready to


15.I'll Be Dreaming

Lyricist:Allison Margaret Pierce

So I've come to this final
Conclusion, I will not wait around
For you to break my heart again
Now I understand

What a fool I've been, I will forgive you but
You know I can't forget because

I'll be dreaming of the nights
When I would lie awake and stare into
The light behind your eyes, I have run into
The trap you set before me, blind
And now my love cannot seem to hide

And now I sit and talk through all the confusion
I cannot now remember who the hell I am
You're not the only one who created an illusion
I knew I'd find my place in time

I'll be dreaming of the nights
When I would lie awake and stare into
The light behind your eyes, I have run into
The trap you set before me, blind
And now my love cannot seem to hide

I'll be dreaming of the nights
When I would lie awake and stare
Into the light behind your eyes
I have run into

The trap you set before me, blind
And now my love cannot seem to hide


16.Let You Go

Lyricist:Catherine Eleanor Pierce

Passion can be as quiet as a whisper
In your head, pain can be so silent
You won't even know it's there

If rage could be so soft
I might stay here with you
If you could see my heart
It might turn your eyes to blue

But I've gotta let you go
It's harder to learn than
It is to know
I wanna watch you fly

It's easier to hurt
Than to say goodbye
It's easier to hurt
Than to say goodbye

God is as good as He is kind
As He is just, He knows just how I feel
Ashes to ashes, dust to dust

But I want a bigger cup
This one won't hold enough
A love and painted heartache
And other fancy stuff

But I've gotta let you go
It's harder to learn than
It is to know
I wanna watch you fly

It's easier to hurt
Than to say goodbye
It's easier to hurt
Than to say goodbye

It's gonna hurt
When I say goodbye


17.The Power Of...

Lyricist:Allison Margaret Pierce, Catherine Eleanor Pierce

And it was the final straw
Though I never knew just what he saw
Never underestimate the power of...
Never underestimate the power of...

He could bring me to my knees
Though I never saw just what he sees
I was callin' out for him, he never turned
I was callin' out for him, I never learned

Never ever, never underestimate
The power of...
Never ever, never underestimate
The power of...

Saw you walking down the street
Those Velcro sneakers on your feet
You were walking faster than I could run
I was walking in the shade and you, the sun

Now we can watch it fall
'Cause they built it up too tall
Now I'm sinking lower than all my tears
Sinking lower than all your fears

Never ever, never underestimate
The power of...
Never ever, never underestimate
The power of...

Mmm, mmm

Boy, you've got a lot to learn
Wait until it is my turn
And you stand ever

Never ever, never underestimate
The power of...
Never ever, never underestimate
The power of...

Never underestimate
The power of...
Never underestimate
The power of...


18.Sticks And Stones

Lyricist:Roger Greenawalt, Allison Margaret Pierce, Catherine Eleanor
Pierce

Hey, domino
I am stopping you from falling
One, two, three
Don't you dare go down

Hey, waterfall
Oh, can you hear me calling?
Three, two, one
Don't you dare touch the ground

I'm the one you want
I'm the one you want
I'm the one you want
I'm the one you want

Sticks and stones will break your bones
And leave you lying in the mud
But you get scared when we're alone
Like I might suck your blood

And I could tell you a witch's spell
But it just might blow your top
And you start to run just as I'm having fun
And it's awfully hard to stop
It's awfully hard to stop

Sun in the sky
I am stopping you from burning
All we need
Is stars and moon

Clock on the wall
I will keep your hands from turning
Or this night
Will end too soon

I'm the one you want
I'm the one you want
I'm the one you want
I'm the one you want

Sticks and stones will break your bones
And leave you lying in the mud
But you get scared when we're alone
Like I might suck your blood

And I could tell you a witch's spell
But it just might blow your top
And you start to run just as I'm having fun
And it's awfully hard to stop
It's awfully hard to stop, it's just too hard to stop

I call thee, beloved one
To love me more than anyone
Seven times I pierce my heart
And now you feel the magic start

Bind thy heart and soul to me
As I do will
So let it be, oh

Hey, lover boy
Oh, now do you believe me?
That's not all
That I can do

Sit back down
I'm afraid we won't be leaving
Can't undo
My spell on you

I'm the one you want
(I'm the one you want)
I'm the one you want
(I'm the one you want)

I'm the one you want
(I'm the one you want)
I'm the one you want
(I'm the one you want)

I'm the one you want
(I'm the one you want)
I'm the one you want
(I'm the one you want)

I'm the one you want
(I'm the one you want)
I'm the one you want

Sticks and stones will break your bones
And leave you lying in the mud
But you get scared when we're alone
Like I might suck your blood

And I could tell you a witch's spell
But you just might blow your top
And you start to run just as I'm having fun
And it's awfully hard to stop

Well, sticks and stones will break your bones
And leave you lying in the mud
But you get scared when we're alone
Like I might suck your blood

And I could tell you a witch's spell
But you just might blow your top
And you start to run just as I'm having fun
And it's awfully hard to stop
It's awfully hard to stop, it's just too hard to stop
I don't think I can stop


19.Turn On Billie

Lyricist:Allison Pierce, Catherine Pierce

When I woke up this afternoon
I knew I felt uneasy
But no matter what I'd do
Nothing seemed to please me

I couldn't get out of my head
That little fight we had last night
Though I would much rather be dead
Than admit to myself that you were right
Oh, oh, oh, oh

Don't be silly, turn on Billie
She's singing us to sleep
So we can dream our lives away

And if we wake up in full makeup
We'll paint the town blue
'Cause baby, red is so passé

Now don't look at me that way
You know I just can't take it
And no matter what they say
I know that we will make it

'Cause when we are good, we're grand
But when we're bad we are very bad
But I stick around 'cause the love
That you're giving me is the best
I've ever had, oh, oh, oh, oh

Don't be silly, turn on Billie
She's singing us to sleep
So we can dream our lives away

And if we wake up in full makeup
We'll paint the town blue
'Cause baby, red is so passé

And it's funny to me
The way that things have worked out
There's no doubt
(In my mind)

That you can't recall
What this all was about
So let's give it up

Love me sweetly and completely
Come and sit beside me
'Cause you know I need you near

When you're wheelin' with that feelin'
We'll paint the town pink
'Cause baby, red is so last year

Don't be silly, turn on Billie
She's singing us to sleep
So we can dream our lives away

And if we wake up in full makeup
We'll paint the town blue
'Cause baby, red is so passé


20.I Should've Known

Lyricist:Allison Margaret Pierce, Catherine Eleanor Pierce

Maybe I should've known, my baby
To leave you alone, maybe

Maybe I should've known
I should've known
I should've known

Oh, but you couldn't stay
Now could you?
Oh, you wouldn't say
Now would you?

Oh, but I should've known
I should've known
I should've known

When the world is on your back
And life is anticipating
Well, if you think it's love you lack
Mine's here waiting

When the world is on your back
And life is anticipating
Well, if you think it's love you lack
Mine's here waiting

Oh, but I'll let you go
I should've known to let it go

And you didn't know, now did you?
That I'd fall in love with you
Oh, but now it's too late
It's useless to say

I should've known
I should've known
I should've known
I should've known
I should've known

I should've known
I should've known
I should've known
I should've known
I should've known


21.Give It All Back

Lyricist:Allison Margaret Pierce, Catherine Eleanor Pierce

You can't fight to make it better
You can't cry and hope that this won't end
Some say love, it is forever
But all I know is that we're just friends

So I'll give it all back
I'll give it all back to you
I'll give it all back
I'll give it all back to you

Yeah

Now you know me like no other
And you know when I'm telling lies
So you believe if you wanna
But you know I, I wanna say goodbye

So I'll give it all back
I'll give it all back to you
I'll give it all back
I'll give it all back to you

You can't fight to make it better
You can't cry and hope that this won't end
Some say love, it is forever
But all I know is that we're just friends

So I'll give it all back
I'll give it all back to you
I'll give it all back
I'll give it all back to you

Yeah

So, I'll give it all back, I'll give it all back


22.Boy In A Rock And Roll Band

Lyricist:Allison Margaret Pierce, Catherine Eleanor Pierce

La da da da da da da da da dum
La da da da da da dum

La da da da da da da da da dum
La da da da da da dum

How deep is your ocean?
How high is your sky?
I love to put our love into motion
But I have to ask myself why
(Why)

I can't tell you how to live your life
But I know how to live mine
I take home pretty things that I like
And baby, you are so fine

Yeah, I could give you everything you need
With just one touch of my hand
But I swore I would never fall in love
With a boy in a rock and roll band

Why do I adore you?
We've only just met
I feel I would do anything for you
But baby, sometimes I forget

That I can't tell you how to live your life
But I know how to live mine
I take home pretty things that I like
And baby, you are so fine

Yeah, I could give you everything you need
With just one touch of my hand
But I swore I would never fall in love
With a boy in a rock and roll band

Well, I forget I'm a lady
I've had too much wine
I'd love it if you would call me your baby
'Cause baby, you are so fine

Yeah, I can't tell you how to live your life
But I know how to live mine
I take home pretty things that I like
And baby, you are so fine

Yeah, I could give you everything you need
With just one touch of my hand
But I swore I would never fall in love
With a boy in a rock and roll band

La da da da da da da da da dum
La da da da da da dum

La da da da da da da da da dum
La da da da da da dum

La da da da da da da da da dum
La da da da da da dum

How deep is your ocean?
How high is your sky?
I love to put our love into motion
But I have to ask myself why

La da da da da da da da da dum
La da da da da da dum


23.One For Me

Lyricist:Allison Margaret Pierce, Catherine Eleanor Pierce, Joseph
Pisapia

One for the lover and one for the lost
Oh the price of sin
One for the sinner and one for the love
I'm in

One for tomorrow
And one for the life I've led
One for the sorrow
And one for the love in my bed

And one for me
And one for me
And one for me

One for the giver and one for the take
And the guilty head
One for the woman and one for the snake
Who is dead

One for the mother
And one for the child to begin again
One for the meek
And one for the mild who give in

And one for me
And one for me
And one for me

Three steps forward
Two steps back
For one more I keep on

One for the liar and one for the trust
Ignorant bliss
One for the metal and one for the rust
To resist

And one for me
And one for me
And one for me


24.Nobody Knows

Lyricist:Catherine Eleanor Pierce

Camera flash and the lights go out
I forgot what I was playing about
People come and people go
Where they go nobody knows

Nobody knows
Nobody knows
Nobody knows

Everybody's talking about the latest buzz
I wasn't listening to what it was
Pay attention, the tension grows
Where it grows, nobody knows

Nobody knows
Nobody knows
Nobody knows
Nobody knows
Nobody knows

Nobody shows you if they love you
They try so hard to be above you

Everybody's looking at the pretty boy
The one who's making all the noise
He don't read much as it shows
Ladies don't love him for what he knows

For what he knows
For what he knows
For what he knows
For what he knows

He never shows you if he loves you
He only tries so hard to be above you

It's getting late so I turn in
Nothing happened yet again
I'm just waiting on love to show

Where it is nobody knows
I'm just waiting for love to show
Where it is, nobody knows

Nobody knows
Nobody knows
Nobody knows
Nobody knows
Nobody knows

Nobody shows you if they love you
They only try so hard to be above you

La, la, la, la, la, la
