L'altra Dimensione Lyrics in English by Måneskin
Fenice is the Italian word for the mythical Phoenix, a bird that is reborn from its own ashes. It's a powerful symbol of immortality, resurrection, and renewal.
In this anthemic song, Måneskin sings "dalla polvere come Fenice / Son risorto" (from the dust like a Phoenix / I have risen). He uses this striking image to describe breaking free from a dull, grey world and being reborn into a new, colorful dimension.
Ready to pack your bags and run? In "L'altra Dimensione", Italian rock band Måneskin decides to leave behind boring everyday reality. The singer is fed up with dull, stressed-out routines, complaining: "Son stanco delle vostre facce grigie / Voglio un mondo rosa pieno di colore" ("I'm tired of your grey faces / I want a pink world full of color"). He mocks people trying to buy affection with credit cards ("Voi comprate amore con le carte Visa" ["You buy love with Visa cards"]) and decides to escape into another dimension where passion heals every cut and scar ("non c'è taglio non c'è cicatrice / Che questa passione non possa curare").
To break free, he turns to a recurring figure in the band's universe: Marlena. Rather than staying stuck in the daily grind, he begs her to take him dancing ("Marlena sì portami a ballare" / "portami a bailar") and teach him how to fight ("Marlena insegnami a lottare"). He claims he rose straight out of the dust like a phoenix ("dalla polvere come Fenice / Son risorto") simply because he packed his bags, kissed Marlena, and joined "Il ballo della vita" ("The dance of life"). It is an energetic, high-tempo celebration of trading a dull existence for total creative freedom.
