Originally uploaded on YouTube a few hours after The Incident happened in The 100, I wrote this song to vent my frustrations at yet another lesbian killed in the media. In an incredibly cruel way as well.

lyrics
I’m really not okay
I thought things would be different
That for once i’d have my day
I’m really not the same
I’m sick and tired of this plot
I put my faith in, all for naught?
(chorus)
It’s not really about the ship
It’s more than that you know it
But I refuse to end the fight
It’s not over tonight
I’ll believe that we’ll meet again
But i’m really not okay
It hurts a lot more than my soul
It rips apart my being, whole
Besides the ones you took away
It says something about an art
When the only option is shot
(chorus)
It’s not really about the ship
It’s more than that you know it
But I refuse to end the fight
It’s not over tonight
I’ll believe that we’ll meet again
(bridge)
I feel a mix of confused
Angry, sad, but glad?
But i’m tired of being toyed
There needs to be some change
(chorus)
It’s not really about the ship
It’s more than that you know it
But I refuse to end the fight
It’s not over tonight
I’ll believe that we’ll meet again
I have to believe we’ll meet again
I know that we’ll have to meet again
