Ink
Coldplay/Musicfire.in Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Carved in your name with my poker knife
And you wonder when you wake up, will it be alright oh oh
Feels like there's something broken inside
All I know
All I know
Is that in lost whenever you go
So much that it hurts
Got a tattoo and that paint is alright
Just wanted a way of keeping you inside (oh oh oh oh oh)
All I know
All I know
Is that I'm lost
In your fire bellow
All I know is that I love you so
So much that it hurts
I see the road begin to climb
I see the stars, begin to show
I see your colors and I'm dying of thirst
All I know is that I love you so
So much that it hurts
Oh yeah yeah yeah
So much that it hurts
So much that it hurts
The lyrics to Coldplay's Ink seem to be about a person who has gotten a tattoo with the words "together through life" and their partner's name carved alongside it. The person wonders if everything will be alright between them as they seem to feel like something inside them is broken. The chorus iterates that the only thing the person knows is that they are lost whenever their partner is away and that they love them so much it hurts. The tattoo, for the person, is a way of keeping their loved one's memory close to them at all times.
The second verse mentions the road climbing and the stars beginning to show, perhaps indicating a dark moment in their relationship that is beginning to see the light with their partner's presence. The line "I see your colors and I'm dying of thirst" is a metaphor for how much the person needs their significant other, their love and presence in their life.
Overall, the song is a love ballad that talks about the unmitigated feeling of love and how one often goes to an extent where even that love hurts them. It shows how the idea of committing to another person through ink, carving their name and love onto their flesh, is something that can be a deep and emotional experience for some.

Coldplay in 20 years show us that:
• Things wouldn't be so easy.
• The stars shines for us.
• Somehow we are all going to make it.
• We never give up
• That we can use our power to make a better world
• If we fail, we can fix it
• If we never try we will never know
• We can cross the entire sky for someone
• The magic does exist
• True love also exists
• That there is always someone special in our head
• Soon there will be a Paradise
And so many infinite things that boil down to the fact that we all have a "Higher Power" Thanks Coldplay ... 🌹

Coldplay en 20 años nos enseñó que:
• Las cosas no serían tan fáciles.
• Que las estrellas brillan por nosotros.
• Que de algún modo todos lo vamos a lograr
• Que nunca nos demos por vencido
• Que podemos usar nuestro poder para hacer un mundo mejor
• Que si fallamos, podemos arreglarlo
• Que si nunca lo intentamos nunca lo sabremos
• Que podemos cruzar el cielo entero por alguien
• Que la magia sí existe
• El verdadero amor también existe
• Que siempre hay alguien especial en nuestra cabeza
• Que pronto habrá un Paraíso
Y tantas cosas infinitas que se reducen a que todos tenemos un "Poder Superior" (Higher Power)
Gracias Coldplay... 🌹
