'Rieting time' creative writing poem

In my creative writing class in High School we had a project of taking a song that we loved and write within that rhythm. This is still one of my favorite classes that I took. I love music and I love writing. I got the rhythm for the below poem from a little band called Incubus.
The song is called "Nice to know you".

blessed than watching the stars becoming liver tombs
blessed than witnessing radiating blue in the moon
he who lies gets captured like a fly, and still you sting
hypocrisy spies into your supplies, but yet you bring
I'd never thought I'd feel this way
I've never had the will to try
regretting having not my seals
i disregard and peel the feel, i need to show you

leaner than the leanest grass that would ever grow
brighter than the brightest ray of light we'd ever seen to know
better he with the keys to the handle that opens the door
a higher sight to see these canyons as a tiled floor
i'd never thought i'd feel this way
i've never had the will to try
regretting having not my seals
i disregard and peel the feel, i need to show you
