Same could be said for quite a few of the rock stars.
Both Laurie and Pamela came out of it ok fortunately for them. The Zep tune For Your Life is about the girls who didn't end up growing up and moving on, and instead got swallowed up by the LA scene.
FOR YOUR LIFE
You said I was the only, With my lemon in your hand
Exhibition is your habit, Emotion second hand.
Had to pull away to save me, Maybe next time around
And she said, 'don't you want it?
Don't you want cocaine-cocaine-cocaine
Hadn't planned to, could not stand to try it, fry it, na na na yeah.
Heard a cry for mercy, In the city of the damned
Oh oh babe, damned. Down in the pits you go no lower
The next stop's underground. Oh, hello underground.
Wine and roses ain't quite over, fate deals a losing hand
And I said: didn't mean to... did not mean to fail
You didn't plan it, you over-ran it
