Hyphen in lyrics

[Stephan Schöll]

Hi all

How can I force a hyphen in a word to be printed as in the example with
the word "washed-out":

\version "2.20.0"

\score {
  <<
  \new Staff {
    \new Voice = melody \relative c'{
      d4 d d r
    }
  }
  \new Lyrics \lyricsto "melody" {
    % whashed-out dreams
    \lyricmode { Whashed out dreams }
  }
  >>
}

This hyphen is a part of the word. I don't want to have it printed
optionally depending on the vertical spacing as regular
inter-syllable-hyphens in lyrics do.

\lyricmode { Whashed- out dreams }
or
\lyricmode { "Whashed -" out dreams }
might be viable compromises, but I'd prefer it centered between "washed"
and "out".

TIA
Stephan
