In the interview featured on his website, Mat Kearney talked about "Straight Away":
"Straight Away I wrote... When I go home to Oregon, for some reason whenever I travel I have this desire to play the piano, I don't know why it is. They were building this whole auditorium for the University of Oregon and there was this beautiful grand piano in this big ballroom. It was like, my little sanctuary to write, so I ended up writing Straight Away there."
Again, this doesn't really explain the meaning of the song, but the origins instead.
