American Pyscho Lyrics

Cover art for American Pyscho lyrics by My Ruin

I think its based on the book American Psycho.

There are lots of references to this, such as: 'this is not an exit', 'my confession means nothing', 'return my videos', and 'abandon all hope ye who enter here.' These are all quotes from book, or they tie in with the book.

'This is not an exit' is the sign Patrick Bateman sees above a door at the end of the book, his excuse to get out of things is that he needs to return some video tapes, at the beginning of the book, the words 'abandon all hope ye who enter here' is written in graffiti, and after Patrick Bateman discusses his crimes at the end, he says that ultimately his confession has meant nothing.

My Interpretation
