What I have come to believe this song is about is that it is about Lucifer (Satan, The Devil, The Deciever, etc.) being cast out of Heaven and into Hell, but it is told, for the most part, through the point of view of the angels in Heaven
Lucifer was God's most beautiful angel. What has led me to the conclusion that this song is about Lucifer is that Lucifer was cast down into Hell for trying to rebel against God (the part about falling so far). Lucifer was held on high by the angels, the angels looked up to him, but then when he tried to rebel against God, the angels saw Lucifer for who he truly was, a deciever. The angels soon realized that the one angel that they had thought was the greatest of them all had gone astray and had abandoned them for what he had done.
This is the conclusion that I have come to due to the lyrics of this song, and I am not saying that my interpretation is correct, but this is just what I believe is the correct meaning due to the conclusions I have made due to the song lyrics.
