Midnight cigarette

“She put him out like the burnin’ end of a midnight cigarette” (Brad Paisley & Alison Kraus)

Pretty sad (but good) song. I don’t want to focus on it, but I thought that particular line from it was pretty vivid. A midnight cigarette… not just any cigarette, but a midnight one. Back when I was bartending, I remember how people would put out their last cigarette of the evening right before going home. There was always such force and finality to it. Like I said… great verse.
