If you use
\set Score.defaultBarType = ""
as in the attached example you don't need to do all the
\once \override Staff.BarLine #'transparent = ##t
And if you add the
\override SpanBar #'glyph = #"|"
you don't get the "|:" in the span bar.
I have no solution for the lyrics problem.
How do you "nudge" the lyrics?
===
My personal preference is to use GroupStaff and no bar lines alt.
\set Score.defaultBarType = ":"
I find the span bar / mensurstrich ugly and of not that much help
since a \breve etc. can span over the span bar and in that way the
singer is fooled by the span bar. And it gets in the way of the
lyrics.
