The farmer took his son out for a lesson in the field
He said "it takes a clever man, his harvest for to yield."
He put two seeds down in the ground and looked up at the sky
"If you want one seed to grow, boy, the other one must die."

The thinker thought he'd had enough of thinking for one day
All conclusions seemed so right, there was nothing left to say
For every Truth he had to cast its opposite a lie
For if you want one Truth to live by, the other one must die.

The lover limped away in tears from the party scene inside
The love he'd finally grown to accept was the one she now denied him
He packed his bags and left his home for Arizona skies
For if you want one love to fly to, the other one must die.
