Puñalada literally translates to "stab" or "stab wound". It's a strong and dramatic word that evokes a sense of betrayal and deep pain.
In the song, the artist uses it metaphorically to describe how an "adios" (goodbye) can hurt as much as a physical stab, highlighting the intense emotional impact of a breakup. This vivid imagery makes the word particularly impactful and memorable.
Marc Seguí spends most of "Agua Salada" picking apart a relationship that went cold fast. "¿En qué momento nos echamos a perder?" (When did we go wrong?) is the question the song keeps circling back to, and the title line answers it with the sharpest image here: "Eres dulce como agua salada" (You're sweet like salt water), something that tastes good going down and leaves you worse off for having drunk it. He stacks contradiction on top of contradiction to describe her: "Me lloras, pero a carcajadas" (You cry for me, but with laughter), "Me acaricias, pero con tu espada" (You caress me, but with your sword), tenderness and cruelty from the same hands.
By the second half he's coping the only way he knows how. "Desde que no estás bebo mucho más" (Since you're gone, I drink much more), he admits, right before insisting to anyone who'll listen that he's better off without her. "Usaste mi bandera pa envolverme" (You used my flag to wrap me) turns his own surrender into a joke at his own expense; he gave up the fight before she even had to win it. It plays like a breakup song that would rather crack a line about a knife wound than admit how much it still stings.
