My initial melody idea for the second verse.

This week my main focus has been on writing another section, or a second verse. I'd like it to be similar to the first section with some slight dynamic differences in the melody.

'Burnt out like stars
I fall into a million pieces
Forever chasing meaning
I fall asleep so I can breathe and
Dream of another life
Another mind
Some other 'I'
To feel, or to die?'

Developing from the first section, I wanted this verse to be more about how my relationship with my regret makes me feel, as apposed to further describing 'her'. I really like the rhythm of the phrases 'another life, another mind, some other I', they seem to kind of trip over each other -  especially on top of the beat which is very lazy and swung anyway.

The second verse into a chorus.

I really like the melody overall, although I feel I definitely need to keep working on it and neaten it up in places. I feel it might be cool to alter the pre-chorus slightly, maybe repeating the 'my' after 'embodies' - I'm hearing some nice BV harmonies over the top.
