Avoid that one when working with vocals.
Try something like attached file.
Note:
you have to name your \context Lyrics else
they tend to be on the same line
you have to make sure you don't create new voices, things like
\new Voice { }
<< { } { } >>
<< { } \\ { } >>
create new voices, so you have to tell lilypond every voice it's name
