Hi,

the main problem with your input is, that you have overfull measures.
{ c d e f2 } are 5/4 in a 4/4 measure. That means, Lilypond draws and
starts this f2 in the first measure, but it is still played in the
second. Therefore, the breathing mark is placed where the f2 is over.
How can you breathe, when the note is still sung? Are you sure, that
these note durations are intended?

If you want to stick to traditional notation practice, such overfull
measures should not occur. Instead, you would write:
{ c d e f ~ f }
If you want this to be done automatically, you can have a look here:

Cheers,
Joram
