"Peace" was demoed as early as November of [[2002]] [https://www.weezerpedia.com/wiki/Recording_History_-_Page_14#11.2F01.2F02_SIR_acoustic_rehearsal]. It was played live [[Weezer concert: 11/03/2002 - Los Angeles, CA|at a secret show in Los Angeles]] that same month. "Peace" also shares its [[COR]] number with an earlier demo, "[[Hey Domingo!]]", which features a similar riff (which in turn resembles a riff from an earlier song, "[[The Dawn]]").

"Peace" also shares an entry in the [[Catalog O' Riffs]] with an earlier demo, "'''[[Hey Domingo!]]'''" (later demoed under the title "'''Don't Let My Heart Down'''"), which features a similar riff and chord progression (which in turn resembles a riff from an earlier song, "[[The Dawn]]").


In a [[May 9]], [[2005]] interview with Y100, [[Rivers Cuomo]] talked about "Peace:" "This song was written at a time of no peace with me, when I was at the end of my rope. I felt like life had no meaning anymore. I was going out every night and trying to have fun, but it wasn't giving me any real satisfaction. I just started thinking 'I gotta find a way to bring meaning back in my life and recover my sensitivity and creativity, and I need to find some peace.'"
