Does Heaven really need us
To twiddle our thumbs, pretending love?
We are all the energy
To keep it running
The machine we can’t see

Cry, kill, speak honest 
We could take off the way we came
And I wonder if God is
Standing in front of the button
Oh yea
Oh yea
Feels like I got a power-up
Oh yea
That’s a whole lotta power, huh?

To cry, kill, speak honest
We could take off the way we came

I watched a snake climb up a mushroom cloud
Walls of light streaming through the city as we were running
Where we running?
Something’s coming and it’s just around the bend
It’s the end / no it’s not
It’s the end / no its not
Is it? We’ll burn it soon enough 
Call it faith or call the bluff
What we don’t know we learn to love in time
We learn to cry, kill, be holy
We could take off the way we came

There are volcanoes under the icecaps
And the kids are not the same
There are volcanoes under the icecaps 
And the kids are not to blame  

But I can’t help wondering
If God is standing in front of the button
Oh yea
Oh yea
Looks like you got a power-up
Oh yea
That’s a whole lotta power, huh?

To cry kill, be holy 
We could take off the way we came
Cry kill, speak honest
We can’t go back the way we came

In Time

little piggy with a big gun 
got no reason but I'm sure he'll find one 
we're all compensating for something 

eavesdropping on the party line 
party people drawing party lines, oh no 
cut cut on the low 
pointing fingers at you in dream world, but the bullet never goes 
privilege moves slow 
they're saying the boy got eyes on you 
don't need a letter to put the heat on you 
we're pinning you 

Young People, pull the fence down 
we're gonna work it out 

doesn't matter where you're from, we got you 
same word different tongue, we got you 


dreams with legs too heavy to run 
we're gonna work it out 
donny don't need your vote to split god's equal sons 
juan ama a su familia just as much as john 
tryna feed his babies, but he's in the wrong 

Young People, pull the fence down

Fish House is a group of childhood friends that have made music together longer than they’ve done ‘most anything else. At its core is the trio of Jacob Benavidez, Adam Jacey, and Kyle Torr-Brown (Wowflower), who first discussed starting a band together in the 1st grade. 

As teens growing up in Connecticut, they became a local mainstay, opening for touring acts and playing shows throughout the Northeast US. They then spent several years in Boston before relocating to Brooklyn in 2019.

The group’s sound, personnel, and ambitions as songwriters have expanded and contracted over the years, leading to numerous iterations that were lived out with piss and vigor before being discarded. In the same vein as an individual experimenting with clothing, dispositions, and social scenes, the members of Fish House have evolved in tandem as an oddball gang of chosen brothers. 

Today, Fish House reemerges as a shaggy-headed 6-piece with a full-length album just around the bend. The first single, “In Time,” is out now.
