Life with hemophilia

You say you love me now But wait until I can't get sleep, cause my elbow is in pain And all I can do is sit and brave it out Wait until I need that quick drive to the hospital When I'm in pain I barely speak And my face turns into the despair I keep inward When all I care about is how the swelling will go away Wait until I have a mouth-sore And I'm bleeding from the sides of the mouths And I can't kiss you for days on straight All you can do is just look at my lips Wait until I can barely eat your food Cause when in pain I want nothing And you have to eat by yourself Or you'd lose your appetite and not eat at all Wait until you need to pick up the needle And help me find a vein When the sight of blood is something you'll have to bear with Cause my body keeps flaring up from time to time You say you love me now I hope you can bear it all Cause I also worry about me sometimes Cause they're days I can't be the man you'd want The PO£T
