Puppet On a String

I am just a puppet on a string
Waiting for others to choose ""my thing""

If I do well, I get a pat on the back
But if I make a mistake, I can feel the slack

I let folks control my feelings you see
Always worried how they feel about me

If I could be me without other's ok
I would not be concerned about what they say

The tension I feel is so very strong
To wonder if my life is right or wrong

Please help me Lord to be able to see
That life is worth living by just being Me
