Late lives

and I guess you arrived right on time,
and I'm still here,
still on this side of the grass,

 but lately I'm feeling halfway there,
and that's a long time for late lives and separate failures,
with not much to show but a lack of posture,

I know I drove myself to this,
I think you already know,
I think you already heard,
at least I hope...
