- Alyssa Lies LyricsSongwriters: Carroll, Jason;
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"
Well 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
"Alyssa lies to the classroom
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"
Oh I know she needs you bad because
Alyssa lies to the classroom
Alyssa lies everyday at school
Alyssa lies to the teachers
As she tries to cover every bruise
I had the worst night of sleep in
years
As I tried to think of a way to calm
her fears
I knew just what it was 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
'Cause she doesn't lie in the
classroom
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
Oh daddy, oh daddy tell me why
Alyssa lies
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"
Well 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
"Alyssa lies to the classroom
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"
Oh I know she needs you bad because
Alyssa lies to the classroom
Alyssa lies to the teachers
As she tries to cover every bruise
I had the worst night of sleep in
years
As I tried to think of a way to calm
her fears
I knew just what it was I had to do
But when we got to school on Monday I

The lump in my throat grew bigger
With every question that she asked
Until I felt the tears run down my

'Cause she doesn't lie in the

When my little girl asked me why
Alyssa lies
Oh daddy, oh daddy tell me why
Alyssa lies

Ive never been abused but i know it hurts because my galf brother was abused by his uncle that he lived with. Its alright i think to spank kids to teach them wrong from right, but some people take it to far and thars. Not ok. If you have that bad drinking or anger problems dont have kids.

This song makes me cry. Because as much as we try to pretend its not happening, people are abused and hurt every single day. Its heartbreaking.

This song makes me cry evrytime and it reminds me of my best friend who died of abuse from her father. I think people that abuse kids should rot in jail for the rest of their life.
