To be honest, I think this song is about Andy LeMaster of Now it's Overhead. It's all speculation, but the lyrics hint at a theme of self-deception and repression and not being who you are, not doing what you want. Andy LeMaster recently came out as gay - NIO's new album is about self-acceptance and, basically, about sexual self-discovery. And, he's from Georgia - a southern state. the lines that stood out for me on that theme would be the bit about "a girl you barely know" and....the conviction "that there is something that she knows" and the bars with people that "try as you try and you still can't relate to them." Other big ones: "Are you who you say you are?" and "Is this really what you want?" you know. all the typical lines. woo!
