First I want your name in the authors box.
Second: I have pretty much fallen in love with this song. What I want you to do for this contest would be: read over the lyrics listen to the song a few times and let it seep into your blood. From that I would like you to take any sort of inspiration and write something similar. The actual prompt I suppose would be something along the lines of when “you realize a moment of intensity of love or music inspired.” To win you will need to write something that moves me while creating pretty pictures & awesome concepts relating to the prompt. Good luck & have fun!

Lyrics:
Heavy night, it was a heavy night
Feels like we've just, come back from the dead
Heavy night, it was a heavy night
I cannot remember what I said to anyone
If we get up now, we can catch the afternoon
Watch the under15's playing football in the park
Let’s sit in St Leonard's on this alcoholic day
We're doing the best, with what we've got
I love you in the morning
When you're still hung over
I love you in the morning
When you're still strung out
I work hard all week and so do you
We deserve to let off some steam
Less orthodox creeping,
We need to rage through all of this life
There might be ones who are smarter than you
That have the right answers that wear better shoes
Forget about those melting ice caps
We're doing the best, with what we've got
I love you in the morning
When you're still hung over
I love you in the morning
When you're still strung out
When I'm with you, I am calm
A pearl in your oyster
Head on my chest a silent smile
A private kind of happiness
You see giant proclamations
Are all very well
But our love is louder than words
I love you in the morning
EDIT:
as a contest are we sucking inspiration wise? i’m guessing that’s a yes so i will add some more songs.
i didn’t really use any of these links for the actual video but for the music instead since it’s a nice quick, easy way to find some songs.
