Cover art for Hospital Flowers lyrics by Owl City

This is about someone who experiences a terrible carcrash that makes them appreciate life more ("Happiness returned to me through a grave emergency"), they get a new perspective on life as they have come so close to death it makes them see past the normal perspective on life. ("A high-speed collision gave a new sense of sight to me")

After the experience he has learn more about himself and wont be scared of anything again as he has come so near to death that little worries dont matter anymore and by going through the adversity of hospital he has new strength for any other challenges. ("I was never afraid of the darkness again, My burns were third degree, but I'd been set free, Cause grace had finally found its way to me") He was set free from life and people as he knows the true perspective on life and what reality really means and he knows a new perspective on life.
