so firstly the band U2 consists of five members. The two 'main' being Bono (Paul Hewson) and John Murphy. The parents of the two stated above. This means at some point, the two would have known each other. | honey | honeyshonestface
further from this, with Elijah's account being private, we have no intel from him regarding the two, meaning their friendship could have been documented throughout his account over the years. Although, with Ophelia, right at the bottom of her account pre music, there is a photo of her and Elijah, in a school uniform sat in a classroom. Assuming the two knew each other around the age of 15. | honey | honeyshonestface
there are also some parallels within the lyrics from it won't always be like this, and Ophelia's released music.
Firstly, in my king will be kind, hewson sings 'i fucking hate that bitch' to which in rockland murphy sings' you'd hate me less and make it alright.'
a second parallel with in my sleep and better. Hewson again sings 'it feels so much better' to which it seems like Murphy then replies with a direct comments towards him 'hope you feel better now'
finally, in cheer up baby Hewson finally sings 'i can't help but blame it on you' as if stating in the song his words have a focus, and it may be her. This can sort of be focused in from ophelia's song better where she sings 'i know im to blame for the small talk" almost like a reply, but not really. | honey | honeyshonestface
although the songs can be a reach, knowing there is history between the two, makes the connections feel much more prominent. Back in 2018, rumoured months before the end of the pairs relationship/friendship. Ophelia was accidentally photographed in a fans photo at a small gig performed in Dublin m. The photo recently resurfaced, other fans only just making out it is Ophelia | honey | honeyshonestface
it's a reach, but with the girl suddenly in contact with the band, it makes us as fans wonder how the two met, the girl being way too friendly to have just met. | honey | honeyshonestface
Especially with parents that are so obviously friends, in 2017, the pair were on the cover of their Dads album 'songs of experience'. A photo that went popular not too long ago, purely due to Elijah having his feet out. Although that is irrelevant, Murphy's mum, Sarah, Posted on instagram, the post gaining a larger recognition than usual. She shared three photos of Elijah and Ophelia together stating they were her favourite duo, all in a sappy post which has friends of the pair commenting as well. | honey | honeyshonestface
