What's this song about?

1
This meeting is a coincidence
2
which deserves a second look:
3
we've seen the chapter of accidents
4
become the longest in the book.
5
I see your face in the picture for better or worse,
6
all power to the accident!
7
Oh, the sweetest is the one I'm holding in my arms
8
and the fleetest is the one who survives
9
but the meetest is the one who's running on the spot
10
where the accident's about to arrive.
11
I know my place on the planet, chapter and verse,
12
all part of the accident.
13
I know my place in the story, a line of blank verse,
14
a part of the accident.
15
No system worth its salt
16
lays all its cards upon the table;
17
no discipline of thought
18
will render me more able
19
to buck those random throws.

(The accidental, the accident!)

Your face in the picture for better or worse,

all power to the accident!

all power to the accident,

all power to the accident!
