The 15th floor

My voice is raw
My muscles are sore
Trying to shake off
That lopsided score

Practice is finished
"Hope" is at bay
How can we win
Must find a way

I step on the Otis
Press button one-five
The doors slide open
Is he still alive?

Venerable man
Patiently sitting
"I lost my key"
I thought "this is fitting"

It was then when I knew
This must be a sign
The long drought is over
The 'ship is now mine
