Hi Janek,
if neither \addlyrics nor \lyricsto or associatedVoice is used, why
align the lyrics?
This is a user-error or it is intended.
In the latter case I'm with David:

Offtopic:
But there's another, ununderstandable issue:
In the Code below, why is the lyric-line in \firstScore not removed
but in \secondScore ?
I'd have expected it the other way around.
\version "2.17.15"
m = { \repeat unfold 12 { c'4 } \break \repeat unfold 16 { c'4 } }
lyrI = \lyricmode { \repeat unfold 64 { bla } }
lyrII = \lyricmode { \repeat unfold 12 { "" } \repeat unfold 16 { foo } }
lyrIII = \lyricmode { \repeat unfold 12 { " " } \repeat unfold 16 { xy} }
firstScore =
<<
\new Voice = "m" \m
\new Lyrics \lyricsto "m" \lyrI
\new Lyrics \lyricsto "m" \lyrII
\new Lyrics \lyricsto "m" \lyrI
>>
secondScore =
<<
\new Voice = "m" \m
\new Lyrics \lyricsto "m" \lyrI
\new Lyrics \lyricsto "m" \lyrIII
\new Lyrics \lyricsto "m" \lyrI
>>
\firstScore
\markup\vspace #2
\secondScore
Regards,
Harm
