The least wishes are orders
Born raised and cornered
Was kept fed and watered
They tied me to the radiators

I was, kicked around and locked down
Left in the cold to self harm
This is all that I know
Naked but safe and lifelessly yours

The least wishes are orders
Born raised and cornered
Was kept fed and watered
They tied me to the radiators

I was, kicked around and locked down
Left in the cold to self harm
This is all that I know
Naked but safe and lifelessly yours

Keep me fed, keep me watered
Naked but safe
Keep me fed, keep me watered
Naked but safe
Keep me fed, keep me watered
Naked but safe
Keep me fed, keep me watered
Naked but safe

Naked but safe
Naked but safe
Naked but safe

Keep me fed, keep me watered
Keep me fed, keep me watered
Keep me fed, keep me watered
Keep me fed, keep me watered

    This seems to be more specifically describing the kind of life of anyone who has been stripped of purpose in their existence. At first, this really reminded me of the kind of mentality comfortable, white children are born into-- they have no conflict to rise against or desires to pursue NATURALLY, they have all their basic needs handed to them at birth ("Naked but safe/ and lifelessly yours"). They are the captive audience of the comfortable world that envelopes them and, without anything to fight against or for, they become disillusioned with the world around them, their values are warped, etc., etc. ("Left in the cold/ to self-harm"). However, such a dynamic can be observed in plenty of other relationships, not just those with oneself or one's environment.
