[Verse 1] I learned the shape of Hallelujah Before I knew what I believed, Learned to call the ending heaven Long before I learned to grieve. They said God like it was certain, Like the question had been answered. But the older that I’ve gotten, The more questions I’ve encountered. [Pre-Chorus] Still, something keeps on calling From beyond what I can prove. I don’t know enough to name it. I just know I feel it move. [Chorus] There’s a tooth that keeps on biting At the edges of my soul, Every answer dulls the aching, But it never makes me whole. I can doubt the map they gave me And still think there might be more. What if faith is not an answer? What if faith can leave room for more? [Verse 2] I’ve heard certainty get louder When the evidence gets thin, Watched them point toward the heavens Like they’d somehow all been in. Every pulpit has directions, Every scholar has a guess. We keep calling something certain Just to quiet our unrest. [Pre-Chorus] So I gather little evidence— Music drifting through a wall, Love that somehow keeps existing When there’s no one there at all. [Chorus] There’s a tooth that keeps on biting At the edges of my soul, Every answer dulls the aching, But it never makes me whole. I can doubt the map they gave me And still think there might be more. What if faith is not an answer? What if faith can leave room for more? [Bridge] Invisible as music, Still undeniable as sound, What if there are things that matter That no evidence can pin down? I won’t dress a guess as knowing. I won’t call a question proof. I would rather live beside it Than believe what isn’t true. [Final Chorus] Let the tooth keep asking questions. Let it worry at my soul. I don’t need a promised heaven Just to wonder where we go. I can burn the map they gave me Without closing every door. What if faith is not an answer? What if wondering is more?
