In April, Colbert talked about his relationship with the song “Holland, 1945” by Neutral Milk Hotel.
The final episode of The Colbert Report aired Thursday night. The last segment was a huge sing-a-long of “We’ll Meet Again.”

He said he loved the "strange, sad poetry" of a song called "Holland 1945" by an indie band from Athens, Ga., called Neutral Milk Hotel and sent me the lyrics, which included this heartbreaking bit:

Of the life we used to love
Just to keep ourselves
At least enough to carry on. . . .
And here is the room where your brothers were born
Indentions in the sheets
Where their bodies once moved but don't move anymore."
