Modest Mouse – Florida Lyrics 15 years ago
I didn't really look at the lyrics, but heres nothing.
Isaac was accused of rape in 1999, afterwhich he moved to florida. I think this song is about that, and when he says

I stood on my heart's porch thinking
"Oh my God, I'll probably have to carry this whole load"
I couldn't remember if I tried
I couldn't remember if I took my brain out
Threw it so directly at the goal
I couldn't remember if I
I could have my mind erased
And still not know exactly what I don't already know

i think this is him thinking that hes going to have to live with this, even though he was found innocent.

Btw, the "gibberish" part is definitely not gibberish. Also I think the like "I didn't want it, you gave me deity" means that he didn't want all the power. This is my opinion. I personally don't think this song is about religion though...
