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.

The Girl Behind The Mask Lyrics
Screaming Trees
Well clouds divide and I see a shape
Pretty girl through the mind gape
Running back fast away
Past the shadows where I stay
Long, long hair
Knock, not there
Wind dissolves the clouds
But the street light youre the only witness
The girl behind the mask
Shes the one
Who never has to ask, yeah
With magic pouring from her eyes
Theres nothing she cant recognize
Makes me want to understand
Makes me feel like melting black
When youre the last flash
When time stands still I ask
Where to fall and I could be calling
Never been in a dream where she could see
The girl behind the mask
Shes the one
Who never has to ask
She reads through your disguise
Its too late
You never realize
And I never realized
Up the stairs her pictures waiting
In the room she might be waiting
Were baptized still getting blinded in the darkness
If I get back to her Id walk away into the forest
And into the thicket, where can I go lord
The girl behind the mask
Shes the one
Who never has to ask
She reads through your disguise
Its too late
You never realize
You never realize
Then you cry please dont...
