[Chorus: Dave Gahan & Martin L. Gore]
Peace will come to me
Peace will come to me

[Verse 1: Dave Gahan]
I'm leaving bitterness behind
This time I'm cleaning out my mind
There is no space for the regrets
I will remember to forget

[Pre-Chorus 1: Dave Gahan]
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

[Chorus: Dave Gahan & Martin L. Gore]
Peace will come to me
Peace will come to me

[Verse 2: Dave Gahan]
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

[Pre-Chorus 2: Dave Gahan]
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

[Chorus: Dave Gahan & Martin L. Gore]
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 an inevitability)

Depeche Mode

Depeche Mode are recognized as one of the most artistically influential bands of the late 20th century. Commercially, they have released 14 studio albums to date, and sold more than 100 million records. Their most recent album, Spirit, hit the streets in March 2017.

The band got their start in Basildon, Essex in 1980, and named themselves after a French fashion magazine. They rose to fame with hits that have become “Just Can’t Get Enough” (1981), “Everything Counts” (1983), and “People Are People” (1984), to name a few. One of their most famous concerts was at the Pasadena Rose Bowl in 1988.

Martin Gore has been the band’s primary songwriter since Vince Clarke left in the early 1980s (and went on to form Yazoo and Erasure). Alan Wilder replaced Clarke on keyboards in 1982, but left in 1995 (reinvesting his creative energy in his band, Recoil, which he had started in 1986). Since then, the band has comprised frontman Dave Gahan, multi-instrumentalist Martin Gore, and keyboardist Andy Fletcher—all of whom are original members.
