Pierces, The - Kings Lyrics






What strikes fear in the heart of one man
Might not even move another
While a stranger gets your hand
You turn your back upon your brother

And you know
You know
You know
You know

We all want the highest towers
And the valleys at our feet
We are counting down the hours
‘Til our life and love will meet

And you know
You know
You know
You know
You know

It's gonna take some time

If we want to
We could do what kings do
I can feel the earth move
When you speak
If we fight through
All the things we once knew
Everything would change for me and you
We could what kings do

You feel unworthy of the throne
You have forgotten who you are
We all have the blood of angels
And we fell from the same star

The heart of a lion and the lips of a child
One part of you is dying
And the other running wild

And you know
You know
You know
You know
You know

It's gonna take some time

If we want to
We could do what kings do
I can feel the earth move
When you speak
If we fight through
All the things we once knew
Everything could change for me and you
We could do what kings do
We could do what kings do
We could do what kings do
We could do what kings do

It's gonna take some time
It's gonna take some time

If we want to
We could do what kings do
I can feel the earth move
When you speak
If we fight through
All the things we once knew
Everything could change for me and you

If we want to
We could do what kings do
I can feel the earth move
When you speak
If we fight through
All the things we once knew
Everything could change for me and you
We could do what kings do
We could do what kings do
We could do what kings do
We could do what kings do

Pierces, The Kings Comments
  1. D.... H....

    Just like all commenters, Underrated is the only bad word coming in mind... Such a shame these women have to struggle against the music Industry where Cardi B and ariana grande enjoy more fame than the idea of living in Mars... Idiocy overpopulated

  2. H.... A....

    I love how one of the girls just charges in with a tree.

  3. e.... g....

    This is ONE of my favorite videos and songs. This song means a lot especially during these turbulent times.

  4. R.... S....

    Great lyrics

  5. E.... O....

    Almost a hit in 2014, but despite a lot of radio airplay at the time it just failed to make the UK Top 40... Great song and band, who deserved so much more...

  6. H.... M....

    reeikia sunaikinti tas raganas ,jos nemegsta musu

  7. S.... G....

    This should have 1 million views by now

  8. A.... E....

    First heard this on the Alan titchmarsh show

  9. A.... A....

    And still my favourite

    A.... A....

    Mine too. This and "You'll be Mine" can't be beaten.

  10. R.... S....

    I just love that beat - 1st time for me listening to these gals - actually, WOW 💕Fell in love 😍 with them
    🙏

  11. r.... l....

    Reminds me of Grimes Genesis

  12. M.... W....

    Need music to be more like this

  13. M.... T....

    I like the live version from the Distillery much better. The vocals have much more power. It's slower, but that seems to help in this case.

  14. T.... W....

    Fave song

  15. R.... T....

    Love them ❤

  16. A.... A....

    Love it

  17. N.... A....

    OUTSTANDING SONG !

  18. D.... H....

    What strikes fear in the heart of one man, may not even move another!!!

  19. T.... A....

    2018 and still loving it... but very less views... They need more..

  20. T.... D....

    one of the best music videos and songs ever made. the creators know deeply about love,

  21. S.... L....

    Reminds me of Fleetwood Mac slightly. Brilliant song.

  22. D.... A....

    Somebody knows something about they? I need more of they music in my life

  23. s.... m....

    Wow they are the best I think they inspire many people... love them 🌓💐💗

  24. I.... H....

    i feel like i have sinned for not knowing this diamond that's called Kings!I just learned it yesterday and i loved it in an instant!

  25. T.... ....

    This song got me through a really bad hangover once and will always hold a special place in my heart ;()

  26. J.... U....

    damn good song... to listen during trading.... driving.... etc

  27. A.... K....

    I bet this song would fit in game of thrones as a new opening theme song really

  28. H.... H....

    STILL haven't gotten enough of this video.

  29. h.... f....

    Amazing song

  30. M.... S....

    I'm attempting to be a writer, and I have known for years that I really want to use this song in one of my projects, but unlike most of the songs that I have chosen for my projects, I have no actually place for this song yet, i.e. I don't know what show or movie of mine it will be in yet, I just love it so much that I know that I have to use it somewhere.

  31. A.... ....

    How in GOD'S NAME does this over 3-year old (new classic) video ONLY have over 700k views, when $hit shows like certain Pop Tarts (who shall remain nameless) release garner 7 million views inside of a week?! Evidence that there truly IS good music out there, BUT, "the industry" doesn't want it to take hold, since it would summarily cancel out the crapola they're so desperate to shove down Our throats.

  32. A.... L....

    Love you so much . Because they don't promote commercial music nobody recognize it . But some kind of people do that .

  33. D.... K....

    From Greece with love we could do what kings do Pierces!

  34. �.... �....

    It's gonna take some time...

  35. L.... G....

    Pierces in similar a ABBA.

  36. J.... K....

    It's so mesmerizing

  37. J.... O....

    Gorgeous, just gorgeous. Evokes another time and place. Ethereal, other worldly perfection.

  38. x.... ....

    STUNNING

  39. A.... J....

    why aren't they recognized?! sooooooo unfair! love you girls..
    fan from India! <3

  40. p.... p....

    Witchw=es wikans getr the pitch forks
    lol to the woods

  41. J.... B....

    These sisters are just plain amazing. Their solo tracks have been good so far but they are much better together. Hope they decide to come back soon.

    J.... B....

    Fantastic group. I wish they'd come to Ireland. I'd be there in a shot and I don't go alot for music nowadays. Keep going girls. You're the biz!!!

  42. m.... ....

    just utterly beyond me why these two aren't huge. I don't get it. I think they've called it a day now. very sad.

  43. J.... L....

    Heard this in a store today and just had to look it up :)

  44. T.... M....

    Extremely beautiful and talented woman. I feel so nice when Im listening this track!

  45. k.... h....

    The most underrated artists of our generation I dunno why miley cyrus n nicki minaj n other trashy artists should be more famous than them .. God doesn't work fair

  46. A.... ....

    Can anyone please tell me WHY I have NEVER heard this song on the radio since 2014 up to NOW?! How the hell did these two cool Ladies not get a Grammy nod for this memorable pop work?! The people running the industry, The Grammys, and the airwaves are the wrong people...

  47. C.... ....

    CAT'S FIRST SINGLE IS HERE! Clink the link below to listen! Produced by Christian Leggy Langdon and Jason Lader.

  60. L.... S....

    I cant stop it, help!

  61. C.... R....

    It will sound childish but I want to win the lottery and use all the money in marketing the hell out of there songs. They deserve to be heard by the entire planet.

  62. L.... S....

    I love this song, but the occult symbolism ruins the mystical video.

  63. y.... ....

    SEXY sisters

  64. I.... Y....

    I still cant believe they are over 40 years old!

    I.... Y....

    Catherine is 38 and Alison is 41
    they are the most underrated singers on the planet tbh

    I.... Y....

    Immortal vampires mate.

  65. I.... B....

    It breaks my heart to know that "The Pierces" is no more. I hope than one day they will come back.

    I.... B....

    quite some time ago; i saw it on their facebook.

    I.... B....

    They're on a hiatus, just a break to do their own musical projects

    I.... B....

    Yah, they aren't broken up, just putting out solos for a while. They'll get back to being a group eventually. And Cat's new single is AMAZING.

    I.... B....

    You mean it Pierces your heart?

  66. M.... B....

    I like more Secret

  67. a.... g....

    I love "one part of you is dying, and the other running wild" chills every time <3

    a.... g....

    same :))

  68. T.... ....

    I always feel embarrassed Shazam-ing songs I hear in TK Maxx, but now and then it leads you to a gem like this!

  69. T.... D....

    Blonds team over brunette hahahaha lol i kid. my friend was actually a worker on this pogram but they needed a bad bitch with blonde hair and tude. no compensation. we all agreed that the song was not very good, but more power to you if you like it indie boppers jajajajaj.

  70. A.... C....

    If this had more Wololo this would be the best Age of Empires song

  71. L.... K....

    I adore this band: their wonderful songs, style, beautiful videoclips and pleasant vocal❤️

  72. F.... ....

    I thought they were more famous. They are really good

  73. E.... X....

    illuminati

    E.... X....

    I thought I was the only one who noticed the vast satanic symbols in the song, a bit disappointed to find them associated to illuminati because I love their music.

    E.... X....

    Nah they would be more popular if they were. They are vampire witches.

  74. h.... ....

    simply in love with this song!!!

  75. c.... b....

    simply badass

  76. G.... R....

    The louder this song, the better

  77. L.... M....

    its your time to be great

  78. L.... M....

    voices of Kingston

  79. N.... S....

    I love the 2 sisters :-) :-) :-) :-) :-) :-) :-) :-) :-) :-)

  80. A.... M....

    AMAZING!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  81. v.... A....

    I love this song

  82. W.... M....

    i want pentatonix to sing this song

  83. C.... J....

    Extremely talented women and deserve more recognition then they are receiving. They are miles better than most of the singers of today.

    C.... J....

    so true your words !!!!

    C.... J....

    Whats with the Illuminati tone with this video, its all over it.

    C.... J....

    Christopher James I know right ♡

    C.... J....

    clenchedstone gaming the triangle is the most powerful symbol

    C.... J....

    definately +1

  84. H.... K....

    what genre would you say this is?

    H.... K....

    the "good music " genre if you ask me

    H.... K....

    why must it be a certain genre. its just Good

    H.... K....

    @Anarkist Productions
    categorizing music is useful, i wanted to share this and people asked for genre. simple question, really

    H.... K....

    I think one of the genres might be psychedelic folk or, at the very least, psychedelic rock.

  85. A.... C....

    great song

  86. s.... ....

    Such an underrated song and music video. Now this is a music video.

    s.... ....

    This and You'll be Mine are the best.

  87. S.... K....

    Been listening to the Pierces since I was 11 and I turned 16 today- still love them!

  88. l.... ....

    there's just something mystical about this song ... love it

    l.... ....

    It feels so empowering. ❤ wish they were still together.

  89. c.... c....

    This is so good

  90. D.... y....

    my favorite songg

  91. K.... S....

    This should have millions of views. :/

    K.... S....

    I think it's impossible in the world full of trivial conformists.

    K.... S....

    “It’s gonna take some time”

  92. A.... P....

    I still don't know why Creation flopped. Some of the songs were gold.

    A.... P....

    +Waldorfdarling No serious ... they split up ! This is fuckin' tragic.... i mean it's even beyond the Bee Gees "Tragedy"... i've got no words for this....
    However i can understand their commercial disappointment.... I Know them since the release of their previous album and Creation for some reason even reminds me ABBA.... Pierces reached here the brightest state of pop....
    Those sisters are like 38 & 40 years old i guess... so for big girls it sound a little bit like a the end of a countdown ... i mean If they want to form a family it's now or never... maybe it influences their decision...
    So much work for just a stagnation in sales... it's potentially disenchanting
    Reminds me latest Diana Vickers singles...or even Jepsen ..again it's. inspired pop with low to average sales... Obviously too many people forgot to clean their indelicate ears obviously
    Coldplay fresh latest stuff is overrated... Chris Martin often said (in interviews) that Echo&TheBunnymen was his favourite band...but once again Echo & the Bunnymen post millenium stuff were not commercially successfull (but critically praised again)... It's like if Coldplay fans do not give a fuck about Martins words...

    A.... P....

    +Waldorfdarling the girls are beautiful and the songs are great...but the videos are/were crap. A lot of people thought they were stumbling across something from the 90s.

    A.... P....

    @michael sharp  I don't think the videos were that bad... i don't believe that they would have found good fortune with other music videos...

    A.... P....

    +michael sharp I like the videos a lot! I have the choice of just listening to the songs on my iTunes but I always opt for getting the videos on the go via YouTube.

    A.... P....

    @Catriona MacRae
    if you like the songs and you like the girls then yeah..you'll probably like the videos as well. I don't hate the videos I just think in the context of things, they could have been so much better.

  93. A.... A....

    triangles everywhere these days.

    A.... A....

    Of course, satanic symbols are everywhere.

  94. A.... J....

    I still cant get over how old they are?! they look like 20 but theyre actually close to 40!!!

    A.... J....

    +Aaron Clark-Jones I know! I had to look it up I was so confused. My mind was a little blown! XD
