i can't

Can't take the pressure
Can't take the unfair accusations
Can't take this portion of life handed to me
Not happy with so many things
Not fulfilled with that I have
Not satisfied in most things I do

When will this end
Will it be too late
The ultimate end will be a welcome change

I'd rather that there be peace
That there would be true joy
Not outer enthusiasm that rises and fades

Can't take this
Can't take this
Take me now.

You know...u sound like a modern Psalmist. I guess problems and frustrations as as old as the history of humanity.

It's comforting to know that the creator of mankind understands what we're going through. It's good to rant out your frustrations!

Just remember, weeping may last through the night, but joy comes in the morning =)

Wow. Modern Psalmist sounds so... high. (hehe) I guess ranting is alright for expression, but in the presence of others, it could be regarded as 'venting out on them' so one has to be on guard.

In a way, Job and David made it clear that it was okay to be blunt with God, and He answered. No wonder joy came in the morning.
