Never write up something for making it look like a rhyme and make it sound good. When you write it from your heart, it will sound good automatically. That is how it is.
Also I don't think much else has moved me to the same degree as this particular John Maus song, especially with its endearingly plaintive pop refrain. Angels, babies, darlings, and all.
Maybe I'm getting unduly defensive again, but I mean what I say!
