I think this song is about Kurt's death and how he was kind of a musical hero for all of us.... probably Lousie and Nina also knew him personally...
this song processes the grief over someone who could let us dream with their songs and suddenly dying, "sinking" slowly and without anyone noticing, when he was celebrated by all the music industry but no-one paying attention that he didn't feel well...
"the sun falling down" is maybe an expression how all went black when he suddenly died and everyone was shocked. also "sun" could be a metaphor for Kurt who "fell down" and who ended his life with depression and drug addiction.
I'm the girl with the tiny hands
Planted underground
Maybe this line means how she (Louise or Nina?) who was a teenager was influenced by Nirvana and their music - and their part in the underground music scene. "Tiny hands" maybe meaning that she wasn't supposed to be the "rock cliché" of a physically strong man and Kurt brought her into music and brought to her the idea that everyone can be a rock star and that women are "the future of rock" (as he said). the idea of equality and appreciation.
Good night moon, good night mush
Good night lady saying Hush
...probably refers to a lullaby ("lady saying hush" meaning mother who sings a lullaby).
it means how Kurt's innocence died through the tough world out there and how he got beaten by the world's cruelty... (also his parents' inability to provide a good childhood for him).
and that's how a part of us all died.

Or maybe the "tiny hands" part means that when she started to play guitar, she had tiny hands
