I see Rylan as a place not a person. A small town somewhere in California, where something terrible happened but that terrible thing just got buried and kept quiet and never really dealt with properly. The line 'you remind me of everyone' is how this town is a reflection of repressed humanity thats stuck in a certain mode.
I think this is probably the nationals best song, the drums and strings are superb and the lyrics do make you think about different scenarios.
