Haven’s “Everything Wants You When You Want Nothing” Isn’t Healing In Textbook Form

You know what hits harder than any romantic heartbreak? It’s being caught, attached in a friendship that was never genuine in the first place. And what you’ll get from Haven’s latest EP “Everything Wants You When You Want Nothing” isn’t a mere story of pain and escape. It’s breaking away from being drained, diminished, and manipulated, translated into a sound that’s less like a curation and more of defiance.

Everything Wants You When You Want Nothing is a trap-charged alternative EP with four electrifying tracks, each stripping away the betrayal and malice over a friendship, forcing you to confront the uncomfortable truth behind it.

There’s a sense of eerieness from ghostslaughatme, not the one that feels like spiders skittering across your skin, but the kind that makes you hold your breath because of the tension in the room. The betrayal and manipulation from each word is bottled up into trap beats that bring movement. The part, “heart I’m sorry for trusting a friend” captures the drama, the emotional gravity, like gripping at a thread only to realize it was severed a long time ago.

Yoshi feels like words you’d speak with clenched teeth. Musically, it feels like sudden, sharp strokes of light, flickering on and off on your eyes. It’s the hollowness and toxicity of the friendship with no sugarcoating, no attempt to filter the story why and how it collapses. What you’ll hear isn’t just plain diss blurted out from bitterness, it’s a declaration of rage translated into electrifying beats and catchy rhythm.

Lost Days <3 cuts deep. It’s grief, the one you thought wouldn’t hurt but it did, and it’s a quietly devastating one. Haven’s voice holds a different kind of pain that even the pulsing, addicting beats couldn’t mask its ache.

Lyin 🙁 ends the EP with a kick. You’ll get the weight of vulnerability from falling too deep, overthinking, and getting lost after being trapped in a toxic connection. It’s not loud yet cathartic in form, like trying too hard to make peace with loss and chaos.

Aside from her musicality, Haven’s lyricism is unmatched. This isn’t healing in textbook form, you’ll feel all the mess, anger, and honesty in each track from her words. At the same time, she refuses to glamourize the pain, she lays it out with unflinching honesty, dissecting it piece by piece. It feels deeply personal and to be honest? You can’t really write something like this unless you’ve felt too much or have been wounded too deep.

Overall, Everything Wants You When You Want Nothing is a reclamation of peace, owning your light despite their continuous attempt to take it.
