As far as I know, LilyPond has two choices for lyric alignment.  If you do
not use associatedVoice or lyricsto, the lyrics will be left-aligned on the
note.  If you do use associatedVoice or lyricsto, the lyric syllable will be
centered on the note.

I did not answer earlier, because I thought somebody else might have a
better answer.

I suggest you send this to lilypond-bug as an enhancement request, with a
bounty attached.  Perhaps somebody will make this change.

I'm sorry that I don't have a better answer,

Carl
