This task has allowed me to delve into the actual structure of the song and lyrics and especially their meanings. The website Genius.com has allowed me to do just that - this was crucial because, due to the meaning of the words, I can now choose the appropriate theme and style of the music video. The lyrics of the song seem quite moral and are written in a subtle manner, but nothing that I wouldn't already understand, despite the help from Genius.com. The lyrics are also repetitive and may sometimes not make any sense, but this only reinforces it because we know already that the words are from an alternative band, which is why they may have a tendency to confuse. Its just the repetition of the words 'when the morning comes' that catch my attention - they seem to be placed in a lot of places and give a positive message, since mornings, in contrast to nights, are stereotypically the positive binary opposites. I noticed that this repetition is exactly what the theme of the song is meant to be about - a new day, with all the troubles and worries abandoned. This is reinforced by the other repeated line, "You know you can't keep letting it get you down", which does not present any contrast to the chorus.
