Track listing

All music and lyrics by Tony Kakko, except for "My Selene" by Jani Liimatainen.

1. "Misplaced" – 4:42
2. "Blinded No More" – 5:33
3. "Ain't Your Fairytale" – 5:26
4. "Reckoning Day, Reckoning Night..." (instrumental) – 3:21
5. "Don't Say A Word" – 5:49
6. "The Boy Who Wanted to Be a Real Puppet" – 4:44
7. "My Selene" – 5:28
8. "Wildfire" – 4:36
9. "White Pearl, Black Oceans..." – 8:47
10. "Shamandalie" – 4:04
11. "Wrecking the Sphere" – 7:02 (Japanese & Korean edition bonus track)
12. "Jam" – 2:51 (hidden track)

The hidden track "Jam" is on all albums, but is often mistaken for the Japanese/Korean-only bonus track "Wrecking the Sphere". "Jam" is an acoustic jam session (as the name implies) and is significantly shorter than "Wrecking the Sphere", which is a typical song.
