By default, TextMark objects are aligned to the left edge of the staff. They can be aligned to the first note of the line instead by setting the non-musical property to false.

\version "2.24"

\paper {
  indent = #0
  ragged-right = ##t
}

{
  \textMark "mark a"
  c'1 |
  \break
  \override Score.TextMark.non-musical = ##f
  \textMark "mark b"
  c' |
}
