lee murdock - requiem of the mesquite lyrics
smoke curls up from the embers of a cigarette
and lingers in the snowy, silent night
and i stand here, nestled in an emptiness
and watch the distant pulsing harbor lie
seventeen years; i’d gladly give them back
for that first_class cutter in her prime
i worked my way up from cadet; she was my first command
but now it just seems a waste of time. a sorry waste of time
five years ago, this very night, not far from here
the winter had its hold upon the bay
we pulled the buoy out, and secured it on the deck
the men then went below to warmth and some card play
out of the night, the rending grone of rock on steel
played its deadly hand against her frame
grounded on the shole, at the mercy of the beating waves
pounding out its endless refrain. its steadily refrain
n0body knows the wheres and whys of happenstance
the officer on deck was new and bright
experience is the best teacher, so they say
i’m guessing there were lessons learned that night
but after all, the commander is responsible
for performance, and safety of the crew
and panic resolves to inaction when adversity comes calling
it all comes down to you. always down to you
[instrumental break]
so many times i’ve asked myself, “how could it be”
that all of us were saved except for her
for weeks on end, pounded by relentless seas
abandoned to a winter undeferred
she’s only a wreck resting on the bottom now
a haven for deep divers to find
a memorial to those universal qualities;
incompetence and the bottom line. the holy bottom line
