Anna said of this album that it is about the moment when you have to make a decision that could change everything, and how exciting, but also dangerous that is.
Suddenly seems to really hit this message home. This idea of standing on the edge of sadness and leaving something behind suggests a change that could lead to something terrible. On the other hand, the chants of the chorus and melody is quite upbeat, almost joyous, like the narrator has broken out of some kind of oppression. This suggests that whatever the change is, it eventually did more good than harm to the narrator.
