One possibility is
\lyricmode{ ... \markup{\column{\line{ The first line would go like this }
\line{and the second would continue here }}} and then the rest of the
line }
however, then the lyrics after the multi-line section will continue on the
top line, not the bottom line as you had sketched below. One workaround
for that could be to use \override LyricText #'extra-offset = ... to move it
down.
