In 2 of the set of 6 songs I have (rather slowly) been setting, I want 2 sets of words: the original, and an English version. In each of the other 4 songs there is just one set of words. After much experimentation and a lot of failures, I found a way of doing what I wanted, which is to use manual durations. This may very well not be the best nor the simplest way of doing it, but it is the only way I found that works.
Have you tried using skip lyrics rather than explicit durations - using \skip1 or _ for example?
