Try something like
<<
\new Staff { c' c' c' c'
\new Voice = "singleLyrics" { c' c' c' c' }
\new Voice = "doubleLyrics" { d' d' d' d' }
c' c' c' c' }
\new Lyrics \lyricsto "singleLyrics" \lyricmode { sin sin sin sin }
\new Lyrics \lyricsto "doubleLyrics" \lyricmode { one one one one }
\new Lyrics \lyricsto "doubleLyrics" \lyricmode { two two two two }
