  Carrie Underwood talks about the story lines in her song “Smoke Break.” (1:12)
“We kind of deal with the mom who is kind of runnin’ herself ragged takin’ care of her kids, and tryin’ to take care of her house and her, you know, husband and her, you know…still have her jobs, tryin’ to put food on the table, and you know, just kind of treadin’ water. It was just kind of all about everybody in their life has experienced some of that at some point. Just struggles with work and family and juggling it all, and then we picked this other guy who was tryin’ to live up to expectations and kind of, you know, strive for the highest thing, climb the ladder, you know, just kind of setting himself up. Hopefully, he’ll succeed, but it’s just about the pressure and about needing to take a step away from both of those scenarios, and the characters deserve to have a moment to themselves, in whatever that moment might be for them and whatever…however they may find peace, just for a second, you know? Your life’s still gonna be crazy when you come back, but you’ll be better able to handle it after you’ve had a second to kind of gather your thoughts. We thought those two things, those two storylines, people could really relate to because everybody’s experienced both of those things at some point in their lives.”
