Stephen Carpenter told Rolling Stone that he was initially taken aback by "Hearts / Wires" because it evoked images of murder, rape, insanity and the serial killer from The Silence of the Lambs. "That song made me think of Wild Bill the whole time – psycho killer and shit. I just didn't feel it," Carpenter said. "I had to embrace my inner psycho rapist and come up with the part and get into it."
