Sweet Shine Lyrics

Cover art for Sweet Shine lyrics by Sonic Youth

I think this is about feeling like you share a special connection with a musician/band ("I know you, I'm from you) and feeling like they speak for you.

The person in the song feels like the music takes them away from where they are now, but also knows that this feeling is only temporary ("I dreamt that you were my vacation/woke to find desire and dislocation").

Kim makes references to Alice in Chains and possibly Blind Melon ("little girls are bees") as being the bands that inspire this person.
