Inspired by another thread (thanks Grotbag), are there poems or songs you can turn to when life derails you, to put you back on track?

My suggestion is The Gambler by Kenny Rogers.

Unknown Brain - Perfect 10

https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=_k1STlEXCkc

What does perfect even mean?

Is there even such a thing?

(Woah-ooh, ooh)

Can we switch up all the rules?

And imagine a utopia

Darling, I am just so fed up

With these expectations, they keep weighing me down

My heart is begging me to get the hell out of my head

I am gonna live inside the upside down

For a minute and pretend

Honey, I'm a perfect 10

(Woah, woah)

Honey, I'm a perfect 10

(Woah, woah)

And if I say it enough

It gets engrained in my head

And I start to see

Honey, I'm a perfect 10

(Woah)

Honey, I'm a perfect 10

Honey, I'm a (yeah)

(Woah)
