Words that rhyme with Fury
Most songwriters treat fury as a word that wants to be sung loud, but the phonology underneath matters: two-syllable, vowel on the clipped /ɪ/, ending that opens out at the end. It's the word a verse reaches for when it wants heat. Two readings: as data — perfect-rhyme territory is narrow, no family rhymes survive the strict family test, there's a working assonance pool to draw from; as lyric — a fever-pitch word. Use the consonance list for texture and tension rather than for end-rhymes.

Why fury rhymes the way it does
Pull fury apart phonetically and you get a two-syllable word with the clipped /ɪ/ (/ɪ/) as the rhyme-bearing vowel; the close opens out at the end. In our 54,000-word dictionary the perfect-rhyme pool returns 5 matches, family rhymes 0, additive and subtractive together 4, assonance 837, and consonance 680. The empty family column matters less than it looks. Family rhymes are a strict-classifier construct; the songwriter's ear accepts most assonance matches in their place. Practical: skim the strict column first and pick the two or three matches you can sing without thinking. Then move to assonance for the in-between lines. Fury reads as more memorable when the strict matches are reserved for the line endings that matter most.
