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.
