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..

Play it backwards it has a message. I like it. It does kinda go with what the dude about rape said... The backwards message I mean...

I reckon this song is about the fuckers of society and how they smother and disease us because we will not join them in perfect foolishness. They are the viruses of our lives and forever will be until someone else takes their place.

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.
