  before i spoke in riddles, i was worried someone would hear me
  now i know that no one really listens so i will just speak clearly
  i don't have private thoughts, just a lyrical worksheet
  for mangling my observations on the meter and the beat
  and in the process of it, on every line
  sooner or later i'll have to change the meaning to fit the rhyme
  
  but back in the skylight all of the stars
  turn into sound and then they shout down at me
  though they are far away, they shout so loudly
  i think i may know what they're saying to me
  it's on the tip of my ear; it's almost palpable!
  i have to listen closely and get my mind around it!
  and when i understand it i'll just transcribe it
  this time when i write it down i'll do it faithfully
  i won't try to rhyme it
