"Virus" as written by Bj�rk Gudmundsdottir and Sigurjon Sigurdsson....
Like a virus needs a body
As soft tissue feeds on blood
Some day I'll find you, the urge is here
Like a mushroom on a tree trunk
As the protein transmutates
I knock on your skin, and I am in
The perfect match, you and me
I adapt, contagious
You open up, say welcome
Like a flame that seeks explosives
As gunpowder needs a war
I feast inside you, my host is you
The perfect match, you and I
You fail to resist
My crystalline charm
Like a virus, patient hunter
I'm waiting for you, I'm starving for you
My sweet adversary
My sweet adversary
My sweet adversary
As soft tissue feeds on blood
Some day I'll find you, the urge is here
Like a mushroom on a tree trunk
As the protein transmutates
I knock on your skin, and I am in
The perfect match, you and me
I adapt, contagious
You open up, say welcome
Like a flame that seeks explosives
As gunpowder needs a war
I feast inside you, my host is you
The perfect match, you and I
You fail to resist
My crystalline charm
Like a virus, patient hunter
I'm waiting for you, I'm starving for you
My sweet adversary
My sweet adversary
My sweet adversary

But then you read the lyrics. It describes how something uses a host for nutrients, and slowly kills the host from the outside. But sometimes the virus acts in such a way that the host welcomes the virus, as it is unknowingly killing it.
