Scelerata's songs represent the new era of modern and melodic but at the same time classic heavy metal music.
Ambitious guitar work, fast and aggressive double bass parts and pretentious melodies supported by Carl Casagrandes brilliant voice.
Ethereal Places
Scelerata Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Around my mesmerized soul
Don't try to fool me
I know it's part of the show
You know, you take me
To ethereal places
Your claims are foolish
My tears are out of control
You know, don't take my faith
To ethereal places
Here's my winter
Frozen and dry
I am freezing
In your arms
No matter how, it turns to snow
Your words are crap, here comes the ones
Oh, you know, you take me
To ethereal places
Be my chain, be my gain, turn into shades!
Ethereal Places!
The lyrics of Scelerata's "Ethereal Places" speak about a relationship that seems perfect from the outside, but in reality, it is built on falsehood and illusion. The singer proclaims that their partner's life seems crystal and mesmerizing to their soul, but they are not easily fooled by the facade. They recognize that their partner's claims are foolish, and their tears are out of control. They beg their partner not to take their faith to ethereal places: places that exist only in the imagination.
The singer describes their winter - a time of emotional coldness and emptiness. They feel frozen and cold in their partner's arms. No matter how hard they try, their words only turn to snow, and their promises are empty. Despite this, the partner takes them to ethereal places that are full of illusions and false hope.
The chorus repeats the phrase "you know, you take me to ethereal places," emphasizing the idea that the partner is responsible for leading the singer down a path of false hope and disillusionment. The final line, "be my chain, be my gain, turn into shades," expresses the singer's desire for their partner to be something more substantial and real rather than an elusive, intangible presence in their life.

This is my season of coldness
Frozen and dry
Completely stagnant and barren

In your arms
While in your embrace
No matter how, it turns to snow
Regardless of the situation, it always ends up badly
Your words are crap, here comes the ones
Your speech is nonsense, now truthful words emerge
Oh, you know, you take me
You are aware of how you lead me
To ethereal places
To dreamlike, surreal domains
Be my chain, be my gain, turn into shades!
Become my bound possession, my benefit, fade away!
Ethereal Places!
Otherworldly Realms!
