Peace

Depeche Mode

Peace will come to me
Peace will come to me

I'm leaving bitterness behind
This time I'm cleaning up my mind
There is no space for the regrets
I will remember to forget

Just look at me
I am walking love incarnate
Look at the frequencies of which I vibrate
I'm going to light up the world

Peace will come to me
Peace will come to me

I'm leaving anger in the past
With all the shadows that it cast
There is radar in my heart
I should have trusted from the start

Just look at me
I am a living act of holiness
Giving all the positivity that I possess
I'm going to light up the world

Peace will come to me
Just wait and see
Peace will come to me
It's meant to be
Peace will come to me
Just wait and see
Peace will come to me
It's inevitability

    Lyric CorrectionI think the lyrics are:
    'Just look at me, I am walking love incarnate'
    and
    'With all the shadows that it cast'

    =) Love this song, it's so....peaceful

    General CommentI have the feeling "Peace" is a sequel to "Wrong". Whilst "Wrong" was filled with self-disappointment; "Peace" seems like a release from that negative state: accepting the past and going for a better future. Two extremes, if you ask me.

    Also... are you sure it's not "I'm leaving anger in the past / With all the shadows that it CAST " instead of "caused"?

    General CommentDoesn't the music in the first part remind you of The Beatles' "Across the Universe"? It may even have something to do with the title of the album.

    General Comment// I'm leaving anger in the past
    With all the shadows that it caused
    There is radar in my heart
    I should have trusted from the start //

    I like this passage very much.

    It seems to me that Peace deals with inner-peace. You have to look inside of you to reach peace that transcends yourself. It begins with you, then you can deal with world outside...

    General CommentTo find some peace after bad life; to be clean and face a new life in a healthy way, but always meditating about the past; great tune, DM brand in the 21st century, true survivors of the 80s.
