You have two options:
- specify syllabe durations manually, as described in Notation
Reference 2.1.3 "Manual Syllabe Durations"
http://lilypond.org/doc/v2.12/Documentation/user/lilypond/Aligning-lyrics-to-a-melody#Manual-syllable-durations,
this way you can have ties where they are (but there will be some
problems with some syllabes being improperly left-aligned)
- do as Bill suggested: remove tie.
The second option is better because it is more logical: a tie means
that two notes should be merged and sound as one, but that's
impossible because singing two syllabes makes two sounds.
The situation is similar when there is a slur across some notes: the
slur means that the notes should "be performed without any perceptible
interruption between them" (music glossary 1.166), but if you sing
many syllabes over a slurred passage, there certainly will be
perceptible interruption between notes.
Note that this situation is different when /phrasing slur/ is used
(unfortunately phrasing slur looks exactly like a regular slur...).
Hope that helps,
Janek
