[edit] Track listing

The album was slightly varied for its international release, removing the song "Casualty" for the song "Unbroken," which, due to not being on any other Australian release, was subsequently released as a digital download in Australia on the iTunes music store. The international version also included the song "They Weren't There" as a secret track and the remixed version of "Scar", otherwise known as the Jay Newland Mix.
