Thorn Twist

What does Torn Twist mean? I have found this expression in a song from the U2 rock band.

Thanks,
Magixo

"See the thorn twist in your side" A thorn is a sharp object. If a thorn is twisted, it will do more damage. So, the imagery of the lyric is to say that something is causing her a lot of pain.
