My little girl met a new friend just the other day,
Out 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 dusted 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,
Every day 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 because
Alyssa lies,
To the classroom,
Alyssa lies,
Every day 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 ways to calm her fears.
I knew just what it was I had to do.
But as 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
And 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.
