I have always interpreted the word "siren" much differently in the two lines that read:
I'm so tired of crying/
you'd think I was a siren
In Greek mythology, the Sirens were three dangerous bird-women, portrayed as seductresses who lured nearby sailors with their enchanting music and voices to shipwreck on the rocky coast of their island. So Fiona may be stating here that some people assume that her songs are bound to cause disaster. This might be because they're not commercial enough for the recording company, but there are often situations in our own lives where people may assume the worst about our motives the instant we open our mouths.
