I have that problem too. All my songs sound the same! My professor introduced me to something called Albertti Bass. It utilizes the chord progression in 8th notes and with mostly chord tones. Your melody can have both chord tones and non-chord tones where certain intervals are supposed to give the melody a certain feel. For example, starting with a sixth interval gives the melody the feel of a love song, while the fourth interval is more open, honest, and inspirational.
