it's because of the ties.

when you do

fis4 r4 e4~ ( fis8 g8 )

you are starting both a tie and a slur from the note e.

just remove the tilde, as what you want is a slur.
The tie causes the lyrics engine to wait for another note.
So make it:

fis4 r4 e4( fis8 g8)

General rule: use a tie to connect two notes of the same pitch; use a slur to 
connect a group of notes that can have different pitches.
