Hi Ryan, you might find an advantage if you already have defined a melody anyway. You can then replace the "normal" voice by a NullVoice which doesn't show up in the score. By that, you can re-use a "\lyricsto"-assignment already made. But LilyPond still treats the material as a musical score. For example, line breaks only happen between two bars. You can show the barlines in the lyrics if you want to.
But usually, for mere text sheets this spacing is not wanted. You can therefore simplify things by not caring about the "real" rhythm at all - see attached files. Maybe this would be a point to start...
