It was helpful for me to understand the example from

http://lilypond.org/doc/v2.11/Documentation/user/lilypond/Divisi-lyrics#Divisi-lyrics

\score{ <<
       \new Voice = "melody" \relative c' {
         c2 e | g e | c1 |
         \new Voice = "verse" \repeat volta 2 {c4 d e f | g1 | }
         a2 b | c1}
       \new Lyrics = "mainlyrics" \lyricsto melody \lyricmode {
         do mi sol mi do
         la si do }
       \context Lyrics = "mainlyrics" \lyricsto verse \lyricmode {
        do re mi fa sol }
       \new Lyrics = "repeatlyrics" \lyricsto verse \lyricmode {
        dodo rere mimi fafa solsol }
     >>
     }

In this case the "\context Lyrics" doesn´t start a new line but fit a new
lyrics part in the existing line (stanza). That means "consecutive"
lyrics...
