Q: I wrote a chorus to a song half a year ago and I have been trying to think of a verse ever since, but i can't think of one. I have an outro and a bridge that go with the chorus, but a verse just eludes me. The problem is, the song starts with the chorus, and i really like the chorus, so i can't think of anything that i like enough to come after it
A: from the way you explained it, it almost sounds like your 'bridge' should come after the chorus. but if that doesn't work, try doing a brief vamp and then jump back into the chorus with slightly different lyrics the second time. i have no idea if any of this will work because i haven't heard any of the material you're working with. but here's another idea: use the verse to try to explain how and why you came up with the part you already have. but don't forget to check if it already just works with only what you have. if it really doesn't want to go back to the chorus, and if it really can't go to the bridge after the first chorus, then maybe you can just figure out the minimum amount you could do before it feels ok to back to the chorus. it's like one of those fun rooms, where you go out the exit door and then everyone just goes directly around to the entrance and goes in again
