So I don't quite see how he missed the bus if he had time to stop and turn around.
To me at least, it almost seemed as if the boy felt as if he was letting down all those who congratulated him. I know the lyrics don't necessarily have to match, but the line "I like to hurt myself like this sometimes" right when he turns around makes me think it might have been intentional.
I don't know, this one is perplexing...

i didn't get the feeling the kid was running to catch the bus or that he'd missed it. i got the feeling that he was just goofing off, being a kid, imaginging people crowding him and cheering him on like a champion footballer. a kid caught up in a moment of sheer silly fantasy. then at the end he turns and looks and of course it's an empty road. just him and the rain and his imagination.
i don't think it was supposed to be plot-driven or deep.
