lyrics

where now are woods for years there stood
a mining town like any other
until that day one fateful may
we sparked a fire we couldn’t smother

but I’m not going to sell
so I bid you farewell
from my portal to hell
in the ruins of Centralia

the topsoil broke to belch white smoke
great veins of anthracite were burning
the road gave out, they changed the route
and told us there’d be no returning

I was the mayor and still I’m there
The last in line with no replacement
There’s toxic fumes in all my rooms
It’s hot as blazes in the basement
