Hospital Flowers lyrics

Verse 1

I survived a dreadful accident
in the car crash of the century
My shattered hopes collapsed on cold cement
But in the back of the ambulance,
I'd never felt so content

Chorus

A high-speed collision gave a new sense of sight to me
And now my vision can render this scene
A blurry image of wreckage and roadside debris
Happiness returned to me through a grave emergency.

Verse 2

I tossed and turned and stared out at the fields
Until the violets arrived for me
The bouquet burst and blossoms filled the room
And the place got smaller
As they grew taller
and taught me to bloom

Chorus

A high-speed collision gave a new sense of sight to me
And now my vision can render this scene
A blurry image of wreckage and roadside debris
Happiness returned to me through a grave emergency.

Bridge

The curtains decayed
The daylight poured in
I was never afraid of the darkness again
My burns were third degree
But I'd been set free
Because grace had finally found its way to me

Chorus

A high-speed collision gave a new sense of sight to me
And now my vision can render this scene
A blurry image of wreckage and roadside debris
Happiness returned to me
Happiness returned to me
Happiness returned to me through a grave emergency.
