Wanted to call this 'F**k You Heroin' or 'From Mirror to Mirror' but decided upon 'No Problem' (I think)

I had looked into life's mirror to see
Life's reflection showing all that I could be
Then the mirror cracked and shattered and I saw
My zenith had been reached that there was no more

At that point you made yourself aware to me
Promising to repair the mirror in it's entirety
Presenting it as a fairy tale portal
Virtual mirror mirror on the wall

Images and visions of a life without pain
Numbed by your panacea in my veins
Blinded I allowed myself to be easily led
By the things you showed me and said

And so you owned me for a number of years
Keeping your false lies and promises
Delivering life to me in many disguises
Without all the fighting and compromises

Then came that fateful day for you
All your fakery I managed to see through
The pictures you had painted hung askew
Words whispered in my ears no longer rang true

So I took my destiny into my own hands
We took a journey to a very dark place
And asĀ  life drained away from your face
I dug your grave in those dark lands

This problem was not at all my first
As I pushed you down deep into the cold earth
This problem was by no means the worst
As I buried you I found I had no soul to search

I see no problem with your now sightless eyes
Cold blue lips no longer poisoned lies contrive
Pierced and still now the most unfeeling heart
Powerless now as from your mortal coil depart

No longer does your dark magik have a hold on me
I have banished you for all eternity
For I have replaced the broken mirror
Finally my reflection appears much clearer.
