@"Minstrel" - You see, I guess that's just it; it's not really about the synchronicity really (albeit a very strange moment), but rather so much more.
It's a allegory of sorts really. We could construct all manner of complicated explanations for the sake of being profound. Or, we could simplify it so everyone could understand, and if people could step back for a moment and see things in these ways they might understand. At the risk of over-simplifying; we could draw a parallel to calling an innocent puppy away from a busy highway. Life and innocence spared by good from a path where no good can come. How all of our lives would be less, and how that young pup would be missed. Many have the ability to see the right path, but not all have the virtue to follow it.
NsB4D hits the nail by saying there is a "balance", and indeed there is. That balance is shifting, and not in the right direction, hence the whole "Fire for you" reference. And, to the "why?" component, well...
When the stars threw down their spears
And water'd heaven with their tears:
Did he smile his work to see?
Did he who made the Lamb make thee?
We, as a society, do bear some responsibility in the matter.
Perhaps we need to analyze that responsibility a little more carefully to better understand.
