Submissions - Week 7 (Theme: Bridge)

dear god, if you exist (singer-songwriter) [themed] This is about the past couple years when I was hospitalized like 8 times. I'm finally on some meds that seem to be helping, although I still have issues. I've never written a bridge before, so I'm not sure if I did it right. I usually just start recording myself, and whatever comes out of my brain is the song (with slight changes afterwards sometimes). Anyway, I know I'm not the greatest, but I still enjoy doing this challenge. BTW, I'm still trying to figure out how to eq (using Audacity), so if anyone has any tips, let me know.

lyrics:

i guess it's just a mystery
i searched for truth until my eyes would bleed
they put me away to try to fix my brain
now all my friends think i'm insane

and i felt so alone
neurotic to the bone
do you even have a clue
what if it happened to you

maybe i'll be okay
and live to see another happy day
i'll find some chemicals to fix the pain
it's sad to know i've lived my life in vain

and i felt so alone
neurotic to the bone
do you even have a clue
what if it happened to you

bridge:

i got down on my knees, and prayed that you'd help me
i begged that you would set me free

and i felt so alone
neurotic to the bone
do you even have a clue
sometimes i wish it would happen to you
