Default Readjustable trunk springs?

My trunk is slightly sticking out at the very top and it is not flush, i was wondering if I can readjust the trunk springs to fix this? Thanks in advance.

Very top of WHAT?.......

If it's OEM it can be adjusted by the bumper stops or the 10mm bolts on the brackets that hold the lid.

You need to be more specific on what area is not flush.
