And As You Decapitated Me

And as you decapitated me
I finally realized who I was
Simply a part of you
That had deteriorated into
Broken dreams and fireless fights
When the shadow was cast
I would disappear into the back
Lost for now, but begging
To come out
And I want to thank you
For mutilating my soul
