Sleepaway Camp - Ants

When David Adams met Ben King at an open mic night in Boston, neither one of them knew what would come next. Soon after this first encounter, David and Ben began to collaborate, realizing quickly their musical influences, which include a mutual love of Bon Iver and early Coldplay, complemented each other.

Together, David and Ben form Sleepaway Camp, a band that works to distill a singular blend of folk, pop, and indie rock. David serves as primary songwriter, lead vocalist, and guitarist, and Ben serves as the instrumental Swiss army knife and producer. They draw inspiration from the complexities and struggles of interpersonal relationships to create richly textured and atmospheric production. Recording everything out of a small bedroom, Sleepaway Camp delivers a feeling of raw intimacy in every song they produce as they take listeners on a journey of nostalgic self-reflection.

Lyrics:
Are we all just ants?
Up on a hill
Diggin, working the earth
Until we got our fill

And its up and down and into the light and into the dark
A terminal walk or a lost art
That we've forgotten about
But that rain, that rain, that rain
She's coming

I was born to learn how
To hold the line
I was born to march from the beginning
To the end of my life
And I'll learn to kill, I learn to fight, I learn to die for another time.
That i ain't see yet

But that rain, that rain, that rain
She's coming
That rain, that rain, that rain
She's coming

I was born an ant living
Up on a hill
I was digging working the earth
Until i get my fill
And its up and down and into the light and into the dark
A terminal or a lost art
That i can't forget about

But that rain, that rain, that rain
She's coming
