[Verse 1: Anders]

Gently, my mind escapes into the relaxing mode of pleasure

A pleasure that will take my mind off of the realities of my life

My past life, life as I know it now

And whatever may come, it slowly disappears

To somewhere in the back of my mind

It will remain there 'til I wish to retrieve it


[Verse 2: Anders]

Yes, I will stay here for awhile, for I need the break

A break from the pressures of life

And everything that lay in the palm of life's hands

Life's hands

This mode is incredible, it's out of this world

Too bad I must always leave it

Oh, but that's life (That's life)

[Outro: Anders and Clown]

That's life (That's life)

That's life (That's life)

That's life (That's life)
