Something like this perhaps:

\version "2.19.80"
\language "english"

\header {
  title = "XMAS_EVET"
  tagline = "" % removed
}

\score {
  {
    <<
      \new Staff {
        \time 4/4
        \clef bass
        \set Staff.instrumentName = #"synth"
        R1
        \once \override Staff.BarLine.layer = #20
        \once \override Staff.BarLine.stencil = #(lambda (grob)
          (ly:stencil-combine-at-edge
          (ly:bar-line::print grob)
          X RIGHT
          (grob-interpret-markup grob #{
            \markup
            \whiteout
            \vcenter
            \pad-around #2
            "rest for X 16"
            #})
          0))
      }
    >>
  }
}
