From official site (now defunct):
dark like snow is a solo venture from Japanese singer Yuki Ishi (yuki translates as ‘like snow’) that started out as a studio based project written and produced by former Fluke members Mike bryant and Jon Fugler. Following a chance meeting with Jon Fugler in a London bar, Yuki offered an assist on some of the tracks to the 2bitpie album and from there came the idea for a collaboration into Yuki’s debut album that is synonymously titled Dark Like Snow. As a band they are just starting out with a few live shows being scheduled through August and later into the year, the album will be shortly available for download on itunes and other distribution outlets.
No Angel
Dark Like Snow Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I am my imperfections too
That's why I love you
Sometimes I just can't tell the truth
When you say that you want me
No matter what I say and do
Why do I choose to feel confused?
I am an angel
Am I the closest thing to heaven you will know?
I am no angel
I am the sinner and the sinned(that's what I hear)
When you call me the devil
I know I'll save your soul one day
Baby this could be Heaven
A place I'm told all good girls go
Couldn't tell you for certain
This could be hell, I would not know
I am no angel
Am I the closest thing to heaven you will know?
blah blah blah evil
Am I the closest thing to heaven you will know?
I am no angel
I know the seven deadly sins
Although they're nothing but simple
Maybe I'll let you under my skin
I am no angel
Am I the closest thing to heaven you will know?
blah blah blah evil
Am I the closest thing to heaven you will know?
I can't be your angel
The lyrics of Dark Like Snow's song "No Angel" delve into the complexities of human nature and relationships. The singer admits to having imperfections and being no angel, yet still loves the person they are addressing. They struggle with telling the truth and trusting their partner's intentions, wondering if they should believe them. They also acknowledge being both a sinner and the sinned, and being familiar with the seven deadly sins.
The chorus repeats the question of whether the singer is the closest thing to heaven their partner will know, while also stating that they cannot be their angel. They express uncertainty about whether their current situation is heaven or hell, and that they may not even know the difference.
Overall, the lyrics seem to reflect a sense of internal conflict and confusion within the singer. They are aware of their flaws and sins, but still desires love and connection with another person. The repetition of the question about being the closest thing to heaven suggests a longing for redemption and a sense of significance.

Just saw the Lifetime movie "Seven Deadly Sins" and this song delighted and intrigued me. Had to find it. That sultry sexy whisper, the melodic minor tune, the fascinating words. "The closest thing to heaven you will know..." Oh yeah.
