Pearl Jam's Wreckage seems strangely appropriate in these heartbreaking times;
"Oh, visited by thoughts and not just in the night
That I no longer give a fuck who is wrong and who's right
This game of winner takes all, and all means nothing left
Spoils go the victor, and the other left for dead
Uh-huh, combing through the wreckage
Holding out, holding on
Combing through the wreckage"
Here they are playing it live in Las Vegas;
Another perennial favourite that seems appropriate, Hope by Fat Freddy's Drop;
"Hope for a generation,
Just beyond my reach,
Not beyond my sight."

(EDIT: swapped out link to version of Hope I prefer)
#RIP to the Freddies' legendary rhythm section, DJ Mu (Chris Faiumu). Released an anniversary edition of Hope would be a fitting tribute to Mu's legacy. I'd pay for it. Funds raised could go to his whānau or another worthy cause.
I just listened to the version of Fat Freddy's Drop's legendary jam Hope that I linked earlier in the day. It was the later one from Based on a True Story, with repetitive vocal sample, house-style version.
I was thinking this should have been called Hope 2, because no part of it is the same song. Then I noticed that the performance I prefer is called Hope for a Generation, not just Hope 😁 #MeaCulpa
