Music video
The song's music video begins with a woman walking down a street, as the camera pans out to reveal the name of the street is Elm Street. The woman stops and looks around, with someone watching her from behind a fence. The woman tries to run away a few times, with the unseen presence chasing her, before she falls to the ground. At the end of the video the woman wakes up in bed, revealing that it was just a nightmare. The video's story with the woman is intercut with shots of the band performing the song in a room.{{cite web|publisher=YouTube|url=https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rNH4IdCJZf8|title=Ill Nino - How Can I Live [OFFICIAL VIDEO]| date=26 October 2009 |accessdate=February 9, 2016}}
