The Dresden Dolls – Ampersand Lyrics 19 years ago
this song is beautiful...

I think amanda is talking about being with someone who always threatens to hurt his/herself

when she says
"That if I didn't love you then you had just one alternative"
reminds me the most of it-because I used to have a boyfriend that would threaten to kill himself if I ever left him. "alternative" meaning death.

"And I may be romantic and I may risk my life for it
But I ain't gonna die for you, you know I ain't no Juliet"

it reminds me of how I finally just gave up-and said, "go ahead and kill yourself if thats what you want. But i wouldn't die for you just because i can't have you"
