This is a case where there are properties you can override to get what you want:
\version "2.16"
\relative c'' {
\override TextSpanner #'(bound-details left text) = x
\override TextSpanner #'(bound-details right text) = x
\override TextSpanner #'(bound-details left-broken text) = ##f
\override TextSpanner #'(bound-details right-broken text) = ##f
c1 \startTextSpan \break
c \stopTextSpan
}
HTH,
