In a social media post, Taylor revealed that the album now includes a second installment of 15 extra songs, making it an “Anthology”. She explained, “I’d written so much tortured poetry in the past 2 years and wanted to share it all with you, so here’s the second installment of ‘TTPD: The Anthology’. And now the story isn’t mine anymore … it’s all yours.”

The double album now features a total of 31 songs, including bonus tracks like ‘The Manuscript’, ‘The Bolter’, ‘The Albatross’, and ‘The Black Dog’. Taylor shared that the album reflects a period of her life that is now over, with no scores to settle once wounds have healed.
