the only place you'll spend the rest of your life, arriving one second at a time.
means the time that is yet to come — everything that hasn't happened but eventually will.
from From Latin futurus, 'about to be,' the future participle of esse, 'to be' — literally the form of the verb meant to describe what hasn't happened yet. It traveled through Old French futur before settling into English in the late Middle Ages. So the word is, fittingly, built from the grammar of things that are still on their way.
