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 in sterile apathy 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.
