Recently, I put together this list of Avril's unreleased songs. I sourced all of the songs using sites such as ASCAP, Songfile, BMI, etc. with the exception of a few that weren't on any. Obviously the list is not complete (as it probably never will be) but I figure it could be really useful for future reference, especially for checking if new registered songs were actually registered beforehand. I'd love any help with finding new information or even correcting information I have down as I'm sure there's bound to be some mistakes. Thank you. 
The songs in green have leaked.
The songs in orange have only had their instrumental leaked.
The songs in blue have had a snippet leaked or performed.
The songs in red were given away to other artists with Avril's version remaining unleaked.

Goodbye Lullaby
Candy - Although the exact writers are unknown, it's presumed Avril wrote the song with Alex da Kid and Skylar Grey.

In 2010, Avril compromised by working with Alex da Kid and posted a video from the studio in which she stated they finished recording her new "hit single". Although not given a name at the time, fans determined the song playing was "Candy" after an instrumental of the song leaked online along with instrumentals for "Gone" and "Complete Me" in July 2011. Avril later stated she'd like to include some Alex da Kid session tracks on her fifth album which may of included "Candy", although plans would fall through for this.

Cut from Goodbye Lullaby to make room for Max Martin tracks, Avril stated in an interview on The View that she'd like to release the song as a single for her fifth album. The song would later be cut from Avril's fifth album possibly due to the instrumental leaking online in July 2011 along with the instrumentals for the songs "Candy" and "Complete Me".

According to the store on Avril's official website, both a studio and acoustic version of a song titled "Hello" were supposed to be featured on the physical version of the Wish You Were Here deluxe single.
