... sort of wrote itself. You may note that the rhyming pattern of the verses is the same as for the chorus. That's not too great, actually. At least the meter differs. I added a lift with a slightly different rhyming pattern: X A X A instead of A B A B. As it comes between verses and the chorus this should make the structure less samey. For the bridge I chose A A B B as its rhyming pattern.

 

I resorted to a rhyming dictionary only once to look up viable rhymes for "turn", and I discovered "discern".

 

Here's one verse with lift (that varies a little over the song):

 

if you just tried to look at things by daylight
maybe you could see a little more
instead believing in right, wrong, black, and white
and keeping up slamming the door
in the face of people you could have loved
in the face of a future you'd enjoy
but you've always known better, haven't you?
you're still that stupid, angry young boy!

 

And this is the bridge:

 

I've got a very simple advice
but I won't be giving it twice
if you want to turn, just turn
it's quite easy to discern

 

You'll find the complete lyrics on my home page if you're interested.
