No, Meg's not that great of a singer, but this song doesn't require an amazing singer to be good. Meg does a great job with it, on the album and at concerts.
Anyway, I don't think this song is about death, I think it's about a woman who is in love with a man who other people say is bad, or who doesn't love her.
