Jeremiah 9:1 - The Message

I wish my head were a well of water and my eyes fountains of tears
So I could weep day and night
   for casualties among my dear, dear people.
At times I wish I had a wilderness hut,
   a backwoods cabin,
Where I could get away from my people
   and never see them again.
They’re a faithless, feckless bunch,
   a congregation of degenerates.
