The prisoner was locked up in a room with a dirt floor. The room has one window, which is high up above the prisoner's height. The prisoner had a shovel, but he had only 2 days to get out, and digging would take him more than 5. How would he escape?
"You will hang me."
Since they cannot hang him - that will make him true and they can only hang him for a lie, and they cannot shoot him - they would mean he told the truth but if they shoot him it's a lie - he is free to go.
It’s true I bring serenity,
And hang around the stars
But yet I live in misery;
You’ll find me behind bars
With thieves and villains I consort
In prison I’ll be found
But I would never go to court,
Unless there’s more than one
