According to the bible. We are souls. We don't have them, and souls die,
And the Lord God formed man of the dust of the ground, and breathed into his nostrils the breath of life; and man became a living soul." Genesis 2:7. A soul is a living person (we don't have souls, we are souls)
The soul that sinneth, it shall die." Ezekiel 18:20. "Every living soul died in the sea." Revelation 16:3. -Souls die (we are souls, we die eventually)
when you die. You return to the dust of the earth Ecclesiastes 12:7
the dead know nothing at all Ecclesiastes 9:5-6&10
Cease to exist until resurrection day Job 14:12
"All that are in the graves shall hear his voice, And shall come forth." John 5:28, 29. "David ... Is both dead and buried, and his sepulchre is with us unto this day." "For David is not ascended into the heavens." Acts 2:29, 34. "If I wait, the grave is mine house." Job 17:13.

As for the spirit, its nothing more then the breath of life that God gave you. It doesn't live on after you die as most christians believe.
"The body without the spirit is dead." James 2:26. "The spirit of God is in my nostrils." Job 27:3. God breathed into his nostrils the breath of life; and man became a living soul." Genesis 2:7
when you die, God takes his breath of life back.
"and the spirit shall return unto God who gave it." Ecclesiastes 12:7.
PS/ nowhere does the bible mention that the "spirit" lives on after death. (as I said, its nothing more then the breath of Life god gave you)
