lifeless
Showing no vitality
Lifeless means without life.
A lifeless body is dead.
A lifeless planet has no living organisms.
Extended uses describe things lacking vitality or animation: a lifeless performance, a lifeless economy, lifeless hair.
The word suggests not just absence but disappointment—something that should have life but doesn't.
