Track listing
Title
It was revealed in an interview with vocalist David Moloney that the origin of the title came from the poem ‘The Untold Want’ by Walt Whitman. Moloney said "It’s about people who don’t settle for what they are given and take it upon themselves to better their situation and create the life they want for themselves. I thought it was a good summation of The Cape Race and how it came to be."
