Hood unlatched while driving! 900 1993

I jumped my lawnmower last night w/ my volvo and must not have closed the hood well enough (I knew the safety latch didnt really work but didnt realize it hadnt closed with the primary latches), so when I left for work this AM as i'm driving 50mph down the road the hood pops up and hits the windshield. Luckily the windshield wasnt damaged, but the lift struts were torn apart. I actually popped them back together but as I closed the hood found that it has shifted back toward the windshield enough that it closes over top of the wiper/wiper motor area. I tried to pry it out so that I can close it but didn’t have a pry bar. It looks like the hinges are bent. Anybody have any good tips on getting this straightened out? I’ve had it up to here with the little things with my car lately!
