Feel Something

Love Song
By Toobo

The universe is expanding
I’m a train wreck
A plane, crash landing

A simple curse
A restless heart
A ship, a speck
Of dust, about to depart

When will I
Return home
To look into your eyes
I will never know

I’m a car crash
Time cannot reverse
Broken body, a trash
life is a curse

A disease, its pleasing
And my heart, it’s feeling
Pressure, I cannot endure
your scent

It will never mend
Broken mind, i cannot find
My way back home, 
The right song 
for the life that was spent

With nothing to show
I tried to take it slow
Too slow,
Too slow

I descend
To the depth of sorrow
I can’t pretend
There will be tomorrow

And I don’t know
When I will return home
And watch you grow
And sing you this song

And sing you this song
It’s a love song

I sang this love song
For all my life I sang
This love song

It was a love song
All along

It’s a love song
A love song




Love Song

Our debut single "When We Drive" is about driving down the coast and enjoying the sunshine. We hope you enjoy it :)

When We Drive

She's serious, she can’t go on
She's been saving up all her best cards
Ever-wandering for so many years
Always trying to say what she has to say
And now she's sweating out all of these fevers
But it’s alright cause she's never going back there again (oh no)
Never going back there again

To the place where she can never be nothing more
Than a cigarette or alcohol nothing more
She ain’t ever going never going never going back there again

Now she's selling off all that she owns
And she's paying back all that she owes
Not a gambler but she knows the odds
Never waiting for someone to rescue her
And she's making up all of these plans
But it’s alright cause she's never going back there again (oh no)
Never going back there again

To the place where she can never be (nothing more)
Than a cigarette or alcohol (nothing more)
She ain’t ever going never going never going back there again

She don’t care that the house won't just let her leave
And she don’t care that her friends all think she should have quit
Cause it is not a problem that the dealer needs a hit

She pushes through revolving doors as she finds herself in the Sands
Taking a seat on the open floor while she pictures the winning hand
Under the weight of the river's four it's the best that she's ever had
Into her heart and out her soul

She don’t care that the house won't just let her leave
And she don’t care that her friends all think she should have quit
Cause it is not a problem that the dealer needs a hit.

Never Going Back - Single

Never Going Back

VIA MY WEBSITE (https://www.lukasneedham.com/tramp-writing-it-all-down-just-to-throw-it-all-up) 

My band Northwest was just winding down production of our self-titled project, set for release that September. At the same time, my capstone course at Ball State prompted me to begin producing new, original tracks. The project’s focus shifted slightly in terms of the sound, but from the beginning I wanted to focus on completely digital drum programming and relying on only myself for the completion of the prompt (this prompt being a set of recordings, either lasting 30 minutes or consisting of at least four tracks.) 

Over the semester, I proceeded to produce new  tracks that bled over into the first couple months of 2025. Some of these tracks have not been released as of yet, but a selection made it onto this project.

A good portion of the self-directed visual media of the project highlights clothing and materials and the way they intertwine with the sound and general ethos of ‘tramp’ .

thanks for listening

"Cuore d'acciaio" 29 Inedito Novembre 2024. Questo brano racconta la storia di una persona che ha un cuore di acciaio, davvero invincibile e resistente a qualsiasi cosa, mentre naviga in un 

mondo pieno di sfide.

 È un viaggio straordinario che ci invita a riflettere sulla forza interiore e sul coraggio, 

proprio come tutti noi possiamo affrontare 

le nostre battaglie quotidiane con 

determinazione e resilienza.

CUORE D'ACCIAIO

about how it used to feel

Your Tenacity

夢から覚めたくない [don't want to wake up]

Program

Retro memory. (Prod. Omamurin)

Closing in

"We Can't Be Strangers After This" is an upbeat indie-pop groove as guest vocalist
Kezia DT steps to the mic with a boy-meets-girl tale about the excitement and anxiety of young
love. She seals the deal in the chorus with an infectious melody and lush vocal harmonies. This song was previously included in Hear65's playlist rotation in early 2025, which was played in all MRT and bus interchanges in Singapore

Muerto por dentro

Old friend

"RUN AWAY (but it’s different)” is a quiet, aching love letter to second chances and soft escapes. In this intimate reimagining of his breakout single, DEAR DAO strips the song down to its rawest form—blending hazy textures, cinematic minimalism, and late-night vulnerability into an ethereal indie-pop experience.

Each version feels like a different chapter of the same dream: slowed and reverb-soaked like you're driving through memories at 2 a.m., or delicately acoustic like a whisper from a distant part of yourself. Layered with nostalgic sadness and flickers of hope, this project captures what it means to long for freedom, connection, and a place that feels like home—even if it’s just in someone else’s arms.

RUN AWAY (But It's Slightly Reimagined Because I Couldn't Let Go)

Повернуся в даль

“I want to be you / but I never want to say the truth to you” — it captures that mix of vulnerability and emotional detachment that defines late-night overthinking.
