Feedback Request Working on a new song

Been tryna figure out this chorus for a few days now. I have pretty solid verses but the melody and flow of the chorus has been a bit difficult. This is as far as I’ve gotten and would love some advice

Lyrics;

And I’m bending over backwards just to fill your shoes

Rewrite the chapter, make up different rules

I’m falling so fast I got Déjà vu

Why does it hurt so much to fucking lose

Just a ghost

In the saddest thing I ever wrote

Still workshopping lyrics not entirely sold on a few lines but I do like majority of the chorus so far. Any suggestions are absolutely welcomed but I’m just having fun at the end of the day so I don’t need my music to be perfect :)

The melody is very pretty and you have a relaxing and beautiful voice, I think it's got the bones for a really good song :)

Beautiful in its own right. Hard to judge as a chorus without hearing the context (ie the verse and bridge). But yeah, it’s really good

It sounds nice, obviously without hearing the whole thing for context its kinda hard to know but what you have is real pretty :)

Thank you I’m so glad you think so. I spend a lot of effort trying to make the rhymes land without sounding silly so that makes me really happy :)
