So this song was inspired by what my band mate was calling this song when it was just an instrumental... Charted. It inspired a whole story of someone tracking down a girl that broke his heart and then finally killing her. At first it was to just be about someone tracking someone down and murdering them and then a name came to me Elenor (which a lot of people call this song), and that's when it became about a girl. Notice it is a-sexual until it gets to that name and then the second verse explains it.
"Charted"
I, I've charted my way
Redemption is only miles away
And I, I tracked you down
From eight cities into this town
And I know your here
And the knock at the door is the last sound
That you'll ever hear
The hour approaches
And my mind is perfectly clear
The hammer will cock
And your body will drop
To the floor
Eleanor
Eleanor
And you, you took what you could from me
With your, your fishnet stalkings at your knees
And I, I know your sins
And now it's time for this carnival to begin
And I know your here
And the knock at the door is the last sound
That you'll ever hear
The time has arrived and my conscience
Is perfectly clear
The hammer has cocked
And your body it dropped
To the floor
Eleanor
Eleanor
Eleanor
