Thank you for that image in the original post! I hadn't seen that until 
now. Here's an extremely ugly way getting the effect I understand you 
want: add lots of invisible lyrics at the note where you want the staves 
further apart.

% BEGIN

  \version "2.19.82"

  fakeLyrics = \lyricmode { \repeat unfold 11 { \skip 1 } adjust this 
space only }
  <<
    \relative c'
    \new Staff  { \repeat unfold 25 { c1 } e e e e e e e e e e e e e  }
    \relative c'
    \new Staff \with {
      \override VerticalAxisGroup.staff-staff-spacing.basic-distance = 20
    }

    {
      \new Voice = "voice1" { \repeat unfold 10 { c1 } c }

     % \break
     % \overrideProperty 
Score.NonMusicalPaperColumn.line-break-system-details
     % #'((extra-offset . (0 . 10)))

      c c c c c c c c c c c c \break c  c c c c c c c
    }
    \new Lyrics \lyricsto "voice1" \fakeLyrics
    \new Lyrics \lyricsto "voice1" \fakeLyrics
    \new Lyrics \lyricsto "voice1" \fakeLyrics
    \new Lyrics \lyricsto "voice1" \fakeLyrics
    \new Lyrics \lyricsto "voice1" \fakeLyrics
    \new Lyrics \lyricsto "voice1" \fakeLyrics
    \new Lyrics \lyricsto "voice1" \fakeLyrics
    \new Lyrics \lyricsto "voice1" \fakeLyrics
    \new Lyrics \lyricsto "voice1" \fakeLyrics
    \new Lyrics \lyricsto "voice1" \fakeLyrics
    \new Lyrics \lyricsto "voice1" \fakeLyrics
    \new Lyrics \lyricsto "voice1" \fakeLyrics
    \new Lyrics \lyricsto "voice1" \fakeLyrics
    \new Lyrics \lyricsto "voice1" \fakeLyrics
    \new Lyrics \lyricsto "voice1" \fakeLyrics

    \relative c'
    \new Staff  { \repeat unfold 25 { c1 } c c c c c c c c c c c c c }
  >>

% END

PDF attached for convenience. The next step would be getting the lyrics 
to not actually appear. Changing font color to something invisible, 
likely white. And maybe having just one lyrics and making the font size 
enormous. There's probably a better way; perhaps I can provoke a more 
elegant solution by posting a monstrosity such as this.
