Story Behind The Song
Lodge Worster wrote this song as a piano ballad, then brought it to producer R. Walt Vincent (Pete Yorn, Liz Phair, Fastball). "No! This song needs to rock!" And so was the evolution of the tune.

Lyrics
It is sad when it's said that the things in your head can betray you,
Paying the price, ignoring advice meant to save you,
But I'm not sacred to take that chance,
In a certain circumstance,
What they say makes no difference to me...
Hey, Margaret!
I haven't found my heart yet,
Hey, Margaret!
The crime's in time with you...
My satellite broadcasts a different channel,
Sending a signal that only your heart can unscramble,
Drifting out into space,
To a deep, dark, and lifeless place,
Still the stars form the outline of your face...
Hey, Margaret!
I haven't found that star yet,
Hey, Margaret!
The crime's in time with you...
Oh the journey was long but I made it...
(Margaret)
And the price was so high but I paid it...
(Margaret)
And I would never trade it in a million years or more,
And I would settle any score to get to you
Margaret!
Hey Margaret!
The crime's in time with you.
