1) Autumn Leaves was a Danish melodic death metal band formed in 1993. They were originally named Decrial in 1992. The first album, "Embraced by the Absolute", was more of a death metal album while the second, "As Night Conquers Day", was more melodic. They split up in 2001.
2) Autumn Leaves is an Italian band founded in 2002 after the break-up of the previous group the “Night Dreamers”. With its initial line-up (Angela’s voice, Marco on guitar and Fabio on keyboards) the band performed about fifteen concerts in the pubs in and around Turin in the north of Italy. In March 2004 a new line-up was put together with Claudio Chessa playing bass and Ivan Tasinato on drums. For the whole of 2004 the band concentrated on preparing original material for their first album. During this creative phase, however, they still performed concerts both in Turin and in the surrounding region. During 2005 the group was recording material for their debut album and promoting their single “Morgana” which can still be heard today on the radio in the Piemonte area. In 2005 the band also participated in their first music competition, the “Torre di Avvistamento Festival” (Watchtower Festival) in which they were awarded second place both by a professional jury and by a common jury. At the end of April 2006 both Angela and Ivan, the singer and drummer, left the band because of private problems. Auditions were started immediately and at the beginning of May the group found its current drummer, Alessandro, and a new singer, Michela.

They have been around since 1994, but their debut LP, "Treats and Treasures" only came out in 1997. The band followed up with "The Twilight Hours of The Autumn Leaves" in 2002 and have appeared in a number of compilations.
Rise From Your Nest
Autumn Leaves Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
There is pain not to be forgotten
Not even joy can throw its light
Over this darkened place
misery gets enjoyable
In this imprisonment of emptiness
Mind exploding visions come to life
Of soul poisoned victims of hate
Not knowing a way out of here
Makes you wanna disappear
In to a world beyond all humanity
To breed and unforgettable species
Pain is for the mortal
I only dress myself in flesh
This non-divine world suits me
I'll rise from my nest
May the beginning start
where the end left off
The lyrics of "Rise From Your Nest" by Autumn Leaves tackle the feelings of grief and emptiness that we experience in times of deep sorrow. The opening lines describe the intensity of the pain, highlighting how even joy cannot penetrate the darkness. The idea of finding pleasure in misery is then introduced, suggesting that pain can become almost tantalizing in its all-consuming nature. The song then talks about being surrounded by others who are also suffering, making it feel like there is no escape from the torment.
The following lines of the song, however, take a bit of a turn. The lyrics speak of the desire to disappear into a world beyond humanity, one that is capable of breeding an "unforgettable species". This concept implies that the singer is not content with simply existing within the parameters of what is considered human. The idea of "rising from the nest" suggests that they are ready to take flight and find a new beginning.
The final lines of "Rise From Your Nest" offer a sense of hope, suggesting that the end of one thing is the beginning of something else. There is a sense of determination in these lyrics, with the singer stating that they are ready to leave their current state of being behind and embrace what comes next.
