It most likely is a reference to his death.
Beautiful Day's lyrics hint that they sacrificed him, Aztec style.
>The heart is a bloom. Shoots up through the stony ground
They (Edge, Mullin Jr and Clayton) pinned him down and opened his heart region and showed it up quickly from Bono's cold, stiff body which became more stony, to the old gods to guarantee a good harvest.
>There's no room. No space to rent in this town
His time on earth. Has come. His offering to the gods is due.
>The traffic is stuck. And you're not moving anywhere.
There's nowhere to run due to the "trafffic" of his bandmates trapping him and his body is becoming lifeless.
>You thought you'd found a friend. To take you out of this place
He did. 3 of them.
>Someone you could lend a hand. In return for grace
The hand of Adam Clayton holding his disemboweled heart in return for a the grace of the gods, an Aztec blessing.
>It's a beautiful day, sky falls, you feel like It's a beautiful day. Don't let it get away
The heavens have opened and the crops shall grow. All due to his sacrifice.
>Touch me, take me to that other place.
Obviously a reference to Bono's physical murder and afterlife.
>What you don't have, you don't need it now. What you don't know, you can feel it somehow.
This is a posthumous lyric. He's gone to a better place. He doesn't have life, but he doesn't need it. He doesn't know the full nature of the gods but can feel their power and that's all that matters.
This is all about his sacrifice and journey to the next world.
It's chilling or heart-warming. Depends on how you view it.
