Mieke Lyrics
I want you on my side
To take the hard shots with me
You make it easy to decide
Showed all your feathers to me
There's a trail that ends tonight
Within the walls of this living room
All of my thoughts that weren't so right
No longer threaten or bother me
Like two strays in a terminal
Floating cinders in the sky
Drifting leaves while stoned aside
This is the race we’re meant to run
To take the hard shots with me
You make it easy to decide
Showed all your feathers to me
Within the walls of this living room
All of my thoughts that weren't so right
No longer threaten or bother me
Floating cinders in the sky
Drifting leaves while stoned aside
This is the race we’re meant to run

thank you again! =]
looks like you missed a sentence.
this song (track 7) is actually titled "Deluca" - the tracks are incorrectly listed when you burn the CD, as the instrumentals are all supposed to be the untitled tracks. "Mieke" is the following track (8), which begins with the line "We broke our face and we had to try" (?) and then leads into "The Shins" (9).
"showed all your failures to me" perhaps???
dude..hopesoforyou im pretty sure you're wrong about the mistitle because when the shins performed this song live, they call it mieke..though i do admit that some of the tracklistings on the cd are messed up i dont think its this song
"showed all your feathers to me" maybe???
In addition to what guitarroman1 said about Mieke, I have a different version of Deluca (on a split as Flake with Henry's Dress). Deluca is definitely track 6. I think the correct order is:

OK, so after some recent Googling and digging around on the Internet, I found out that the old version of Deluca that I have was actually titled Loncie on that split single. So I suppose that point I made was useless and incorrect anyway. That's the correct track order from everything that I've seen, though.

On the other hand, I acquired a really old 1993 version of Mieke, Flake's first single. It sounds so much different! Most of the lyrics are different, too, except for the first two lines, but they're way harder to make out, and I'm not even...

I accidentally added this as a reply to the previous comment. Oh well, here I go again.
