SECRETLY It’s the way she smiles that mesmerizes, hypnotizes. That’s why I feel the way I do. I keep standing here at the back of the room. I guess I’ll just love her secretly. It’s the way she laughs that captivates me, penetrates me. That’s why I feel the way I do. I keep saying “hi” like it’s nothing at all. I guess I’ll just love her secretly. Leaving words unspoken (They’re written down.) will leave my heart unbroken. (I’m just a clown.) When it comes to loving you, (You wear my crown.) my silence is golden. It’s the way she smiles that mesmerizes, hypnotizes. That’s why I feel the way I do. I keep standing here at the back of the room. (I keep holding back.) I guess I’ll just love her secretly.

about

Lamar Holley's autobiographical Confessions reveal the private wishes and worries of one college student's most agonizing aspirations: love and friendship.

From the skin-deep beauty of "Biology" to the genuine "Flower", Lamar confesses his way through secret crushes, slow dances, rejection, and lovesickness.

Loaded with power pop arrangements and candy-coated harmonies, Confessions of a College Student is a rollicking concept album that is largely academic but mostly comically, tragically, and hopelessly romantic.
