It's probably simplest to use Lyrics with manual durations for such
things:

<<
  \new Staff { c' d' e' d' \bar "|." }
  \lyrics { A-4 ve Cae- sar, "morituri te salutant." }
>>

Maybe it would make sense if "associated" lyrics would just continue
with the normal durations when losing their associated Voice rather than
committing suicide.
