Backroad Anthem, Torn [Listen]
Backroad Anthem say singer Craig Strickland would have wanted them to continue after his tragic death, so they're making the most of their time in headlines by releasing "Torn." The song acts as a tribute of sorts to the late year-old.
Its not a song written for Strickland, but by him.
"Torn" is the title track of the group's EP, released last year. The country-rock song is a polished, melodic heartache song that finds a guy begging a girl to choose between him and another. The pain is palpable as he holds the final note of each chorus. Its as if hes venting his frustration out of some bedroom window as he shouts Im so torn! the final time.
"Torn" falls somewhere between Rascal Flatts and Jason Aldean.

Backroad Anthem, "Torn" Lyrics:
He calls, you cry / You call me, I drive / Ill be there in five / Anytime day or night / Ill hold you till I hurt / Youll tell me that youre through with him / And Ill believe you once again.
Chorus:
Cause I cant walk away like this / But how could I stay for one more kiss / If we aint making it as just friends lets shut that door / Im so tired of you living this life / Cause you know I aint that guy / I can love you baby but I cant love you more / Im torn.
I give, you take / You smile girl I stay / I put the pieces back in place until he calls you the next day / He makes you think he did no wrong, talks you back into his arms / Leaves both of us just hanging on.
Because I cant live like this / Is it gonna be me or is it gonna be him / Im worn down and worn out / Tearing apart at the seems / Im so tired of living this lie / Because you now I aint that guy / I can love you baby, but I cant love you more / Im so torn.
