I think Isaac is saying that he'd drive or do anything for someone he knows and loves a lot. He knows it's a long drive, but he feels strongly for them.. At 1100 miles, he realizes this has been far too long of a drive.
He wrote his name on the sun to get their attention. A life of arctic sounds is being around arctic areas and having to go through there.
In other words, the long drive is really trying his best to be good for them, but it's obvious that the road just isn't the right one. Finally he drops...

In other words, the long drive is really trying his best to be good for them, but it's obvious that the road just isn't the right one. Finally he drops it at 1100 miles/ a big fight or realization. He does something really big and kinda stupid to get the person's attention. A life of arctic sounds would be having to listen to such strange things you've never heard before, or having to go way out of your way to listen to really cold stuff from the person you're trying to get to. 'I might be goddamned' probably means that he does a lot of stuff he's not proud of, and so he's kind of saying he may be thrown into hell. The sad comedians, this part I'm not sure of, might mean like the stand-up comics that try and laugh and joke about their life, even if it's fucked up.
Of course, it's personal interpretation; and that's just one of the great things of Modest Mouse.
this song is all over the place. I would say he is trying to get away from someone he let down. Traveling to the sun and to the arctic.
