The spring is dead, try ebay or a junk yard and replace it.

your vehicle probably has shock struts that hold your trunk up. THey are the black pistons on either side of the trunk. They will need to be replaced. I would get new ones, anything from the junk yard will have been worn so u may the problem again sooner than u want.

Those struts are cheap and come in pairs in some places.Go ahead and buy a pair and even you can install them.It's easy.
