"Alyssa Lies" is a song written and recorded by American country music artist Jason Michael Carroll.
[1] The song is about a young girl, the narrator's daughter, who met a school friend named Alyssa, who is suffering abuse.
[1] To explain her injuries, Alyssa lies to the teachers and classmates, so as not to implicate the culprit.
Eventually, the father (the singer) of the little girl, after hearing her pray one night for Alyssa's safety, decides to report the suspected abuse at school.
On the radio station 93.7 The Bull, located in St. Louis, Missouri, a trucker called in, and he said he had just listened to the song, and his eyes had become so filled with tears that he almost veered off of the road.
