Hey Angel Lyrics

Hey Angel
Do you know the reasons why
We look up to the sky?
Hey Angel
Do you look at us and laugh
When we hold on to the past?
Hey Angel

Oh I wish I could be more like you
Do you wish you could be more like me?
Oh I wish I...

    I think they wrote the song Hey Angel because of the fans that passed away. I knew someone who passed away from just not being loved. I loved her. If we just loved everybody in this fandom and everyone in the other fandoms we would not need to have these songs. If you are reading this please just make someone feel wanted and not bring them down. If you are just feeling alone please just talk to someone. it wont get better if you don't talk to someone about what your feeling. if you need someone to talk to I'm always free. my wattpad account is maddyis12. Please talk to me or someone, because then people like 1D won't have to write songs like Hey Angel.

    I think it is about the fans who died from whatever reason and didnt make it to today.

    I read that they didn't write the song and it wasn't for them either. The song wasn't going to be sang by them. The writer said that the song was important for him but he never said anything else.
    To be honest at first I was confused when I read the lyrics, I didn't made sense to me. Why would they told to the ones who passed away if they wanted to be like them? But who knows?

    I think it's about them being famous and wanting to live a normal live before you scroll away listen to this
    1:"oh I wish I could be more like you,do you wish you could be more like me?" That's basically saying they want to be normal

    Okay second interpretation
    They are talking about the dead fans or someone that died in their lives
    1:"tell me do you ever cry when we waste all our lives hey angel!?"

    I think this is about someone who is a good girl and does everything right. They are asking if she ever watches them and gets upset when they waste away their lives. They are asking if she ever considered crossing over to their side.
