Iron in the blood

They don't tell you how fragile blood is
How easy it is for the mix to be off
Our energy and life is in the blood
If you sit still and listen you'll hear it
The blood in your ears and that heart beating
Life is in our blood... and you're fucked if it's off
Anemia is sometimes called lack of blood
It's when your blood destructs too early
Iron is need for the formation of healthy blood cells
There is several known reasons for anemia
But this is the most common cause for it
It can be a slow decline, one you might never notice
Sometimes you only get dizzy when you first stand up
Anemics can also lose eyesight for a few seconds
Your heart starts to pound randomly
Some think it's anxiety when reality is...
Your body is desperately working overtime
Just trying to get your blood where it should go
Oxygen is brought around the body by blood
Lack of oxygen is a dangerous game to play
Ever wonder why your nails splinter and dont get long?
Iron is an important part of your bodies foundation
You're tired, weak, sickly and the doctor just shrugs
They tell you to take iron supplements
When most of the time they don't work
Especially for those that desperately need them to
Iron is so very, very important to a body...
And sometimes it's all you need to feel better
Depression and neurological disorders are linked to low iron
How many people go untreated when all they need is an infusion?
