Peace
. Depeche Mode Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
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
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

In 2009 when this videoclip appear to me on MTV Brasil. I was very nearly to the suicide. I cried and watched so many times "Peace will come to me" became a Mantra/Oração. 12 years later I'm still here. And I still listen to this song every time I need. Muito Obrigada!

Maria Dinulescu is an outstanding actress and her performance in this was incredible. I've never understood why actors in music videos are never mentioned in the credits.
