Keep The Peace
Should you fall into my arms again
You know I'll pray with you
(You know I'll pray with you...)
In my room at night, your vision shining bright
I'm waiting for you
(I'll be waiting for you...)
Dancing in the light
Shadows fall from you
Learn to watch your step - You come falling
In my arms again, in my heart again
You will break like a butterfly
Keep the peace for what you're talking
"Keep the Peace, Keep the Peace"
Walk of fame is where you're walking
"Keep the Peace, Keep the Peace"
Keep a hold of what you're taking
Even though the walls are shaking
Keep the peace there's still tomorrow
"Keep the Peace"
When you break into my arms again
You know I'll stay with you
(You know I'll stay with you...)
Now you're holding on, I'll be with you tonight
I'll watch over you
(Yeah, I'm watching over you...)
On the street inside, see the blinding light
Am I dreaming - you come falling
In my arms again, in my heart again
You will break like a butterfly
Keep the peace, the walls are talking
"Keep the Peace, Keep the Peace"
Walk of fame is where you're walking
"Keep the Peace, Keep the Peace"
"Keep the Peace, Keep the Peace"
"Keep the Peace"
Keep a hold of what you're taking
Even though the walls are shaking
"Keep the Peace, Keep the Peace"

INXS was originally formed in 1977 in Sydney, Australia as the Farriss Brothers. The lineup included the three Farris brothers: Andrew

(songwriter/keyboards); Tim (guitar); and Jon (drums), along with Michael Hutchence (lead vocals/songwriter); Kirk Pengilly (guitar/saxophone) and Garry Gary Beers (bass). They began gaining popularity playing in pubs before moving on to support other local Australian bands, including Midnight Oil.

In 1979, they changed their name to INXS and released their first single “Simple Simon” in 1980. They went on to release their debut self-titled album INXS in 1980, closely followed by their second album, Underneath the Colours, in 1981. Neither album gained much attention outside of Australia, however, in July of 1982 INXS released their single “The One Thing” ahead of their next studio album. The song began to climb the U.S. and international charts, thanks in part to music video’s heavy rotation on MTV.
