No you have in your example a malformed syntax. You are overriding a widget and defining a variable on the widget to alter it so the markup bit in your example just goes plunk or nowhere. Try this.
\override BreathingSign #'font-size = #'22 See the pattern \override WidgetType #'alterable-variable = #'(expressed value of variable desired) Sometimes the parenthesis are required, e.g. x and y values, but for single values they are not. There is likely a way to tweak this into existece but I am too tired to work that out just now.
