Just unpack the archive, when the top-level directory will be
lilypond-2.23.12. Move this to any permanent location you like.
Run lilypond and the other binaries either by giving their full path,
or by adding lilypond-2.23.12/bin to your $PATH (under the name you chose).
Uninstall, if required, by removing the top-level directory.
Cheers,
David.
