A popular song goes . . .
Drowning in the sea of love, Where everyone would love to drown.
and another . . .
Killing me softly with his song.
The psychology behind these words is the desire to fill the mind with so much rubbish that boredom and suffering will have no place to exist. We use entertainment and the media to swamp our minds with sensational tripe, to arouse our every emotion so that we might forget reality altogether.
When reality is forgotten, life ceases to exist. Consequently our whole lives revolve around killing ourselves!
