Why can’t the body re-absorb blood during internal bleeding?

Your veins/arteries would have to be porous or permeable enough to absorb it – which would most likely mean it would leak back out when your heart pumped. Also blood isn’t supposed to be everywhere just like your food can’t just go anywhere when you swallow it.
Also too much blood/liquid in, say, your chest cavity could keep your lungs from fully inflating.
