In my opinion this song is about sex; maybe even rape.
The protagonist watches the person he wants so badly all the time, maybe he's a stalker or something. (what would fit to vermillion and vermillion pt 2)
Then he takes what he wants by force.
I think the further lines are really the act of having sex, just kindly intensively described from the view of a man^^
"I'm going to empty you and fill you in with me
not yet - don't make a sound
oh god, I'm feeling it
it's reaching fever pitch"
I think that points to the arousal he's feeling and he's trying to hold it back but then he comes.
When Corey's voice is getting louder I think he's had his orgasm.^^
Apart from this 'virus of life' could fit also to sex, since sex is the source of life...
That's my interpretation, if you listen to the song thinking of it, you might see that it kinda matches..

Im really going with the first guy about rape ''No mercy, no remorse
Let nature take its course'' but just the beginning I think the rest is about how people only equal shit and violence only destroying everything almost like a second people=shit
''This is the virus
The virus of life''

This is one of Slipknot's darkest songs. It puts you in view of the person stalking a woman. He is completely obsessed with her daily life. As the song progresses, you witness his disturbed obsession with this woman grow more perverse and intense. The stalker's thoughts and fantasies start to frighten him, he knows he is out of control but can't stop himself, until he finally can't hold it back any longer. Insinuating he is going to rape, torture, and kill her so he can have her to himself forever.
