This is weird, but I thought of Pearl in The Scarlet Letter. She was the child born out of wedlock to Hester Prynne, and she was Hester's alter-ego---capricious, wild, lawless, and wise beyond her years.
I believe she thinks that SHE is the siren song, that despite her efforts to love the right way she will crash whoever she loves against the rocks. She believes herself to be evil, so she know it's inevitable, despite her most honest efforts to love.
I also thought maybe it was a metaphor for depression---in her perfect world, she'll never be sad, she'll always be a supportive and active lover who does not ruin the party or bring anyone down. But she realizes this dream is unrealistic, because she's mentally unstable and can't deliver on her promises. A lot of guilt, regret, and anger at herself (and maybe, I think, at the person who expects it of her).
