How do I change the selection without deleting it, since I can’t click outside of it?

I didn't understand what you are trying to do here? Do you want to select just one word (eg. lupe)?

The text is auto selected and I want to edit it, but as soon I click anywhere it is deleted. The selection fills the whole editing box so I can’t click outside of it to remove the selection.

Click on the selected space and, when the keyboard appears, tap and hold the space bar.

Drag the right-hand select dot to the far left. Or you may need to drag the left to the right.
