gcc returning tons of errors in a tiny hello world program

I'm sort of stumped. This is the error I'm getting from gcc

gcc -lm -g -o bin/tomashell obj/tomashell.o

And this is my entire code file:

#include <stdlib.h>
#include <stdio.h>

int main()
{
    printf("Hello, world!");
}

I don't have the slightest clue why this is not compiling. I'm compiling all my other C applications just fine.

obj/tomashell.o is not an object file but an executable file. You probably forgot to use -c when compiling it, so (by default) gcc output an executable instead of an object file.
