Song Lyrics as prescription for my Soul

If someone was to ask me, what song would describe my life, it would be closest to Richie Sambora's "Hard Times Comes Easy". The lyrics are as follows ;-
It's amazing, we go through changes,
When times get crazy, it's up and down, it's hot and cold.
These complications, just keep on coming,
There ain't not running, when it comes to life that's how it goes.
Round and round we go,
Sometimes it feels like, we're on a roller coaster ride.
Baby don't you know, it could eat you up,
If you try to keep it all inside.
Seems like hard times come easy, we do a lot of hanging on these days,

But there are times U meet friends who have been dishearten and its so difficult to motivate them out of the rut. Immediately this lyrics would ring in my ear, some of the people whom I have come across may find this lyrics very close to their hearts.

Maybe you're losing pieces of your heart
You have a world but it stopped turning
You lose the day and gain the dark
Love was a fire but it stopped burning

Spare your heart, save your soul
Don't drag your love across the coals
Find your feet and your fortune can be told
Release, relax, let go
And hey now let's recover your soul

But sometimes, motivating people can take a toll on yourself and to buck up immediately the Lyrics to Van Halens Jump comes to mind;-
I get up, and nothing gets me down.
You got it tough. I’ve seen the toughest around.
And I know, baby, just how you feel.
You’ve got to roll with the punches to get to what’s real

At present time, I seem to be soul searching and this can be depicted by the lyrics to the song Superman by Five for Fighting;
I’m only a man in a silly red sheet
Digging for kryptonite on this one way street
Only a man in a funny red sheet
Looking for special things inside of me
Inside of me

I wonder what other song lyrics motivates your Soul.

Wish you were here - Pink Floyd

so, so you think you can tell
heaven from hell,
blue skys from pain.
can you tell a green field
from a cold steel rail?
a smile from a veil?
do you think you can tell?

and did they get you to trade
your heros for ghosts?
hot ashes for trees?
hot air for a cool breeze?
cold comfort for change?
and did you exchange
a walk on part in the war
for a lead role in a cage?
