There was no meant for harm,
just for fun, a meaningless prank.
However, what was found was an arm.
It was sealed away in a mere fish tank.

Just for fun, a meaningless prank.
They didn’t think the damage would be done.
It was sealed away in a mere fish tank.
They were sure there were no bullets in the gun.

They didn’t think the damage would be done.
However, what was found was an arm.
They were sure there were no bullets in the gun.
There was no meant for harm.

&quot;You&#039;ve got to learn to move on, because life will move on. If you don&#039;t move on, you&#039;ll just end up in over your head.&quot;<br /> <br /> &quot;Never regret anything because at the time, it was exactly what you wanted.&quot;<br /> <br /> &quot;We accept the love we think we deserve.&quot;
