Lyrics

This meeting is a coincidencewhich deserves a second look:we've seen the chapter of accidentsbecome the longest in the book.
I see your face in the picture for better or worse,all power to the accident!
Oh, the sweetest is the one
I'm holding in my armsand the fleetest is the one who survivesbut the meetest is the one who's running on the spotwhere the accident's about to arrive.
I know my place on the planet, chapter and verse,all part of the accident.
I know my place in the story, a line of blank verse,a part of the accident.
No system worth its saltlays all its cards upon the table;no discipline of thoughtwill render me more ableto buck those random throws.
This meeting is a coincidencewhich deserves a second look –we've seen the chapter of accidents,it's the longest in the book.
Oh, the sweetest is the one
I'm holding in my armsand the fleetest is the one who survivesbut the meetest is the one who's running on the spotwhere the accident's about to arrive...(The accidental, the accident!)
Your face in the picture for better or worse,all power to the accident!
I know my place on the planet, chapter and verse,all part of the accident.
I know my place in the story, a line of blank verse,a part of the accident.
I see your face in the picture for better or worse,all power to the accident,all power to the accident!
