Jason Michael Carroll - Alyssa Lies lyrics

My little girl met a new friend Just the other day On the playground at school Between the tires and the swings But she came home with tear-filled eyes And she said to me "Daddy, Alyssa Lies" I just brushed it off at first Cause I didn't know how much my little girl had been hurt Or the things she had seen I wasn't ready when I said you can tell me And she said [Chorus] Alyssa Lies To the cla**room Alyssa lies Everyday at school Alyssa lies To the teachers As she tries to cover every bruise My little girl laid her head down That night to go to sleep As I stepped out the room I heard her say A prayer so soft and sweet God bless my mom and my dad And my new friend Alyssa I know she needs you bad [Chorus] I had the worst night of sleep in years As I tried to think of a way to calm her fears I knew exactly what i had to do But when we got to school on Monday I heard the news My little girl asked me why everybody looked so sad The lump in my throat grew bigger With every question that she asked Until I felt the tears run down my face And I told her that Alyssa wouldn't be at school today She doesn't lie In the cla**room She doesn't lie Anymore at school Alyssa lies With Jesus Because there's nothing anyone would do Tears filled my eyes, When my little girl asked me why Alyssa lies Daddy tell me why Alyssa lies
