Phantom of the Johnny

Mike Shannon's First Album under the project name of instunnedsilence

Blood of Eden (Peter Gabriel Cover)

don't look behind you
there's nothing left to see
you used to wait for your life
to fall down at your feet

now you've reached for your dreams
the memories start to fade
and all that's left behind you
was never meant to stay

hold on to your dreams 
they'll never slip away
hold on to this life
and leave this sea of change

destined at the right time
a life forever changed
I will stay behind
and walk among the graves

hold on to your dreams
they'll never slip away
hold on to this life
and leave this sea of change

and those these old bones
are left to decay
their memories live on
and never fade away

Sea Of Change

My Enemy - (ft. Chris Horton on Drums)

My name is Michael Shannon.  This page is to share 
my music.

I write, record and produce all of my own music.  I've been creating music ever since I picked up a guitar at age 16.  I admire musicians who constantly push themselves out of their comfort zone and challenge themselves to be better artists.  This page will document my attempts to grow as an artist.  Hope you enjoy the music.
