Parole Fearing - Xasthur

Now that I can see through the cards you’re holding

It’s about that time you should be folding

What about all that time you spent?

Were you just breathing air and paying rent?

Loitering with a car, never going far

Have you tested the waters of your soul

To see how shallow you are?

Got nothing to do after you paid all those bills

Show us who you are using someone else’s skills

You know your own end and you’re on a roll

What would you do if you made parole?

Loitering with a car, never going far

Have you tested the waters of your soul

To see how shallow you are?

Early for your own funeral if it was nearing

You’re always late for your parole hearing

Can’t call it rape when you’re running

From your own escape
