Jason Michael Carroll "Alyssa Lies" |
My little girl met a new friend just the other day On the playground at school between the tires and the swing And she came home with tear-filled eyes When she said to me daddy, Alyssa lies Well, I just brushed it off at first cuz I didnt know how much my little girl had been hurt Or the things that she had seen I wasnt ready when I said you can tell me 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 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 wouldnt be at school today Cuz she doesnt lie in the classroom She doesnt lie anymore at school Alyssa lies with Jesus Because theres 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 Lyric from www.lyricmania.com |
