“White Death”….
\n…Simo Hayha….<\/p>\n

…credited with 505 confirmed kills of Soviet soldiers….<\/p>\n

…accomplished in fewer than 100 days at a time of year… with very short hours of daylight….<\/p>\n

…He preferred to use iron sights….<\/p>\n

…put a Finnish finish on a Russian Mosin-Nagant….<\/p>\n

…highest recorded number of confirmed sniper kills in any major war….<\/p>\n

…Fact not folklore….<\/p>\n

…Fact a folk lure….<\/p>\n

…dressed completely in white camouflage….<\/p>\n

…kept snow in his mouth, so that the vapor of his breath would not give him away….<\/p>\n

…No scope, no breath….<\/p>\n

…No way….<\/p>\n

… White Death….
\n… White Death….
\n… White Death….<\/p>\n

… let us take a shot…
\n… at changing our age…
\n… and care a lot…
\n… about our damage…
\n… no mirage….
\n… let us kill kill…
\n… until….
\nwe are the death of death….<\/p>\n

kill kill while there is still until<\/p>\n

ABOUT THE SONG
\nThe song is a tongue-in-cheek analogy of the famous Finnish sniper that used a Russian Mison-Nagant riffle to kill Russians (becoming the most famous hidden sniper in history.) In the same fashion, what if we tried to kill killing? What if we became the death of death… by not having any humans kill other humans?<\/p>\n
