Snow Angel is amazing because it's so smart in the approach of the theme.
First, the title "Snow Angel" just makes you think that it's about winter, nostalgic memories when you were making angels in the snow as a kid. You think it could be happy or sad, but also nostalgic.
Then the music video appears as it's winter, there's a lot of snow and it's like she just woke up from a long sleep and then seasons have passed and it's winter.
And after that you listen to the song, by the lyrics you know that it's totally not what you thought it would be. She's talking about making it through the winter, that it could kill her, and you understand that the whole song is a metaphor for drugs, especially cocaine. "I feel it in the tip of nose" --> literally how you take the drug, you sniffles it (hope this term is used correctly, I'm not English). Then the "it's white outside but red underneath" is about the fact that the drug is white but once it's in your nose, it bleeds.
And I find it really amazing the way she wrote a song about addiction without using any term other than 'addiction' in the bridge. She let the doubt plan a little, before confirming that yes, it's about drug. I've rarely seen a song that develops so well a metaphor all along!

first time i heard 'snow angel' it fckd me up so much, especially the bridge - even now i still shed a tear; the voice, the lyrics and the visuals are just stunning. and the insta video really is spotlighting her vocals.
also hannah if you want more sapphic content from renee then she plays a really fun lesbian character in 'the sex lives of college girls' 👀

So Reneé left the meaning of the song Snow Angel up for interperetarion until recently when she told the story in an interview. Essentially she made friends with the wrong crowd and got into drugs a little bit and then one day she woke up at 5 am on a bathroom floor with bl00d on her legs and no memory of what happened that night. Her friends were nowhere to be found and she still has no idea what happened, and she is no longer friends with those people. She also said she doesn’t want to know what happened but she needed to write a song about it. The whole album was written until she wrote snow Angel, and it became the main single and title of the album. Knowing the meaning just reveals so much about the song and after learning what it was about, I fell even more in love with the purity, intensity, and raw nature of the song.
