Expanding on the siren theme, the siren beckons the guy into the waters, but maybe looks like a lost loved one. Since she is promising that he can be with her once again, he goes in. But, obviously this is to his demise. Hence, "For my mistake, I am to blame" (The mistake of being seduced by the siren) and "I give my life to have you near once again" (he died because he thought he would be with her again).
On another note, if the water is seen as a symbol for suicide, then Simone's part is easily interpreted as the side of him that wants to seek solace in suicide. The last line follows especially, with the same quotes as above. he knows he is to blame for it, but he just wants to give up life so he can die and hopefully be with her in death. If this interpretation is true, or if anyone else sees it as this way, then the last words are- to me - the most haunting "Will you forgive me?". Could be talking to the one he sacrificed himself for.
