Screaming Trees Picture
Screaming Treeswere a grunge band formed in Ellensburg, Washington, in 1985. Their sound was a mix of 60's psychedelia and punk rock, and even though they were critically acclaimed by many, they never achieved the superstardom of, say, Nirvanaor Soundgarden. Following the tour, Screaming Trees took another hiatus. After a June 25, 2000, concert to celebrate the opening Seattle's Experience Music Project, the group unsurprisingly announced their official breakup. The founding members were brothers Gary Lee Conner (guitars) and Van Conner (bass), vocalist Mark Lanegan, and drummer Mark Pickerel.

Screaming Trees

Histories are held within your heart
So let it go
Open all the doors around your eyes
And let us know
Certain keys are held within your hand
So let it show
Bring us closer to the flame
Bring us closer to the fire
Wheres the spark within your eye
Wheres the spark
Thunder in your ears
Until you cant hear this at all
Rivers flowing tears
Until your destinies dissolve
Drifting through the years
Until a voice receives your call
Bring us closer to the fire
Bring us closer to the flame
The end and beginning are the same
Its all the same
Mysteries are kept within your heart
So let it show
Open all the doors around your eyes
And let us know
Certain keys were held until they must have let you go
Bring us closer to the flame
Bring us closer to the fire
This world cant take us any higher
