The Purple Speed Queen
Kirby Gregory, Sonja Kristina
Emlee Jane was the girl who never had time to explain
Lived her life in a whirlpool, cried if it happened to rain
She had run away from home, only thinking of herself
Mother's sick and so upset, they say she may never be well
Slow down, Emlee Jane, slow down, look back, look at what you've done
And she said she couldn't love, she didn't know where to begin
Changing like a bird in flight, she lived all her life on the wing
And she lay in bed each night, with men she met the same day
Left next morning - no goodbye, and they never saw her again
Then she took an overdose, she didn't feel tired at all
When she died the doctor said that she couldn't take any more
